Placing Adjustable Balloons for Urine Leakage

Mississippi rates for HCPCS 53451

Placement of small adjustable balloons alongside the urethra to support it and reduce urine leakage. They go in through a needle puncture rather than an open cut, and each connects to a small port under the skin so the amount of fluid inside can be changed afterwards. It is used for leakage on coughing, laughing or exertion when simpler measures have not worked.
