Can you bill for a Foley Catheter? And if you can what is the HCPCS code for it?
 
I will wager an opinion here. Since you inserted the catheter, then yes can code for it. It is DME given to the patient. I would report HCPCS codes from the A43 category (A4316-A4355). Also, if tape was used, check out HCPCS codes from the A44 range. There is also a modifer you use. It is modifier AU to indicate this was an ostomy supply. Modifier KX may also be required by the payer.

I would also recommend checking with the payer here for their specific critiera for coverage of this DME.

Hope this helps and again this is my opinion.
