Scope Removal of a Stone From the Ureter

Delaware rates for HCPCS 52320

A thin lighted scope is passed along the urethra into the bladder, and a stone lodged in the ureter — the tube carrying urine down from the kidney — is grasped and drawn out. Nothing is cut: the whole thing is done through the natural urinary passage. It is used when a stone is too large or too stuck to pass on its own.
