UCR 269: New Prostate Biopsy Codes for 2026 – Answers to Your Questions
December 26, 2025
In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Ray Painter answer listener questions about the new 2026 prostate biopsy CPT codes. They clarify global periods, explain the differences between transrectal and transperineal approaches, and tackle the nuances of coding for MRI-guided procedures—especially when using systems like Promaxo. They also break down the use of 55715 for additional targeted lesions, when modifiers like 52 may apply, and how payers might interpret these new codes differently. The team emphasizes caution, payer communication, and the evolving nature of both coding and coverage guidance.
