In-And-Out Bladder Catheterization

Virginia rates for HCPCS 51701

A thin tube is passed through the urethra into the bladder to drain urine and is then removed straight away. It is used to measure how much urine is left after urinating, to collect a clean sample, or to relieve a bladder that will not empty. Nothing is left in place afterwards.
