First of all, THANK YOU GURU for all of your assistance!!
when doing a cysto or a uro case and there is a lithotripsy at the point when they visualize the calculus, what code would be best? i am thinking the 00918 but it doesnt state lithotripsy.
the other option would be the extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy with water bath
(00872) or without water bath (00873).
the other option is 00910 for transurethral procedures.
any thoughts are appreciated.
