The use of lidocaine or other local analgesic is also not usually reported separately. Besides CPT code 51700 for the bladder instillation, you will also need to report the code for the drug instilled. For example, if the documentation indicates that 50 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) 50% aqueous irrigation solution was instilled into the bladder, the appropriate HCPCS code would be: J1212 – Injection, DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide, 50%, 50 ml According to United Healthcare’s Policy Guideline, coverage of DMSO will depend on the individual insurance plan and what is reasonable and necessary. DMSO may not be considered reasonable and necessary for treatment of another condition other than interstitial cystitis. Hopefully, you now have a better understanding of interstitial cystitis and how it is diagnosed and treated.
