Do you use a modifer with cpt 52000?

Answer 1

Yes, when using CPT code 52000, which refers to cystoscopy, modifiers may be necessary depending on the circumstances of the procedure. For instance, if the cystoscopy is performed on both sides or if multiple procedures are performed during the same session, modifiers like -50 (bilateral procedure) or -59 (distinct procedural service) may be applicable. Always check the specific guidelines and payer requirements to determine the appropriate modifiers for accurate billing.
