CPT® Code 0811T

Remote multi-day complex uroflowmetry (eg, calibrated electronic equipment); set-up and patient education on use of equipment

Remote multi-day complex uroflowmetry is a diagnostic procedure designed to assess urinary function over an extended period, typically up to 10 days. This procedure is particularly beneficial for patients experiencing lower urinary tract symptoms, which may include a slow urine stream or difficulty initiating urination. The CPT® Code 0811T specifically refers to the initial set-up of the uroflowmetry equipment and the education provided to the patient on how to use this equipment effectively. Uroflowmetry itself is a noninvasive test that captures critical data regarding the patient's urination patterns, including the volume of urine voided, the speed of urination, and the duration of the voiding process. The equipment used for this test can be integrated with a urinal or toilet, allowing for seamless data collection during normal urination. Once the patient uses the equipment, it generates an automated report that provides valuable insights for healthcare providers, aiding in the diagnosis and management of urinary conditions.
