Simpson undergoes a cystourethroscopy for biopsy of the ureter with radiography. Would the catheterization, endoscopic procedure, and biopsy each be reported with separate codes? Would the answer change if the secondary procedures were somewhat complicated and thus required significant additional time and effort?
