About 51725: Simple bladder pressure study
Reports simple bladder pressure testing during filling to assess bladder sensation, capacity, and pressure behavior in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms.
A simple cystometrogram records bladder pressure as the bladder is filled, helping assess sensations of filling, capacity, and pressure behavior. A urologist or other qualified clinician commonly performs the test in an office or outpatient setting, using a bladder catheter and a simple pressure-measuring setup. It can support evaluation of symptoms such as urinary retention or incontinence when bladder function needs assessment.
Choose this code for the simple study, not a more extensive cystometrogram that adds complex pressure measurements or other testing. Documentation should identify the clinical indication, method, pressure findings, and relevant filling observations. The global service includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care; modifier 26 identifies interpretation, modifier TC identifies equipment and staff, and no modifier represents the global service. In a same-session multiple-procedure setting, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures receive the standard reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

- Global period
- Minor procedure with a 0-day global period: same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included.
- Professional and technical components
- Diagnostic test with a professional component (modifier 26, interpretation) and a technical component (modifier TC, equipment and staff); billing without a modifier is the global service.
- Multiple procedures
- Standard multiple procedure reduction: the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50% when performed in the same session.

51725 billing questions
When should 51725 be selected instead of 51726?
Use 51725 for a simple bladder pressure study during filling. Use 51726 when the service includes complex cystometrogram testing with calibrated electronic equipment.
Can the professional and technical portions be billed separately?
Yes. Modifier 26 reports the interpretation, and modifier TC reports the equipment and staff; an unmodified claim represents the global service.
Is modifier 50 appropriate for this code?
No. The CMS bilateral adjustment does not apply, and modifier 50 is inappropriate for this service.
What documentation supports reporting 51725?
Document the clinical indication, the simple pressure-measurement method, and relevant pressure and filling observations, including the patient's reported sensations when recorded.
How is 51725 paid when other procedures occur in the same session?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and the other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction.
