I am looking for an answer for a procedure code that is being rejected in our Ob/Gyn office. We are having 51701 Insertion of a non-indwelling catheter being rejected when billing with 51784 (EMG) and 51728 (Cytomeogram). Is there a way that these are payable together, or is 51701 always bundled into these procedure. Thanks for any help!!

The introduction of Straight non dwelling catheter for residual urine , is an inherent component of the urodynamic procedures. It cannot be reported separately along with these major procedures.
Modifier 51 when multiple proceudres are performed in the same investigation sessions.
