Chapter 1 of the cci policies states that insertion of urinary catheters is included in a large number of procedures. Can anyone tell me if the foley cath insertion (when performed by the physician) is included in cardiovascular procedures, or is it separately billable with a 59 modifier?

Thanks,
Diane Huston, CPC
