Complex Bladder Tube Exchange

Kansas rates for HCPCS 51710

This procedure replaces a tube that drains the bladder through an opening in the lower abdomen, in a situation that is more difficult than a routine exchange. Difficulty can arise from scarring, a narrowed tract, or other factors that make removing and reinserting the tube more involved. The clinician removes the old tube and threads a new one into the bladder through the same opening.
