Billing in Urology
A practical view of what makes this specialty unique.
Urology billing encompasses a wide range of services, from office-based consultations for conditions like BPH and incontinence to complex surgical procedures in the hospital and outpatient settings, including robotic surgery. Our urology billing service is designed to manage this diversity with precision. We ensure accurate coding for everything from cystoscopies and urodynamics to radical prostatectomies and lithotripsy, maximizing your revenue and minimizing compliance risks.
Accurate coding for cystoscopy (52000-52010), urodynamics (51725-51798), and biopsy.
Standardized into our workflow to reduce rework and protect revenue.
Expertise in billing for TURP, laser prostatectomy, and other BPH treatments.
Standardized into our workflow to reduce rework and protect revenue.
Management of coding for lithotripsy (50590, 52353) and ureteroscopy.
Standardized into our workflow to reduce rework and protect revenue.
Coding for urologic oncology procedures (radical prostatectomy, cystectomy, nephrectomy).

What slows reimbursement
The common friction points that trigger delays, denials, and rework.
- Accurately coding for a high volume of in-office procedures (cystoscopy, urodynamics, bladder instillations).
- Managing the complexities of coding for surgical procedures on the kidney, bladder, and prostate.
- Ensuring proper coding for lithotripsy and other stone management procedures.
- Billing for urologic oncology surgeries, including radical cystectomies and nephrectomies.
- Navigating payer policies for emerging technologies like robotic surgery and focal therapy.
- Certified urology coders with deep expertise in both medical and surgical urology coding.
- Precise coding for all in-office procedures, diagnostic tests, and minor surgeries.
- Expertise in billing for complex urologic oncology and reconstructive surgeries.
- Meticulous management of global surgical packages for all urology procedures.
- Proactive prior authorization for scheduled surgeries and expensive injectable drugs.
- Detailed support for E&M coding for chronic urologic conditions.

Coding complexities we watch closely
Modifier usage, documentation rules, and specialty-specific payer edits.
- Cystoscopy coding based on the specific procedure performed (diagnostic, with biopsy, with stent placement).
- Urodynamics coding for a series of studies often performed together.
- Coding for stone management based on the location of the stone and method of removal.
- Correct coding for robotic-assisted surgery using modifier -22 or specific codes.
Missing prior authorization for surgical procedures.
Incorrect coding for stone procedures based on location.
Unbundling of components of a urodynamics study.
Bundling issues with cystoscopy and related procedures.
Incorrect use of modifiers for bilateral procedures.
