Patient received a stent (CPT 52332) in his transplanted kidney and ureter due to a kidney stone. Patient still has both of his native kidneys and has had his transplanted kidney for many years; making RT or LT modifiers not an appropriate modifier. Would the KX modifier with a note in Box 19 stating stent was placed in transplant kidney?
