CPT® 51702 included in urinalysis?

HI, There's a cloding clinic (3Q 2007) that states 51701 is included in urinalysis. I am wondering if CPT® 51702, insertion of Foley cath, is also included in urinalysis? Thank you,

Elaine

Apply CPT® code 51702 for the insertion of a temporary, indwelling bladder catheter. In this case,the physician might give the patient a leg bag or drainage tube. This procedure involves the passage of a Foleycatheter that will be left indwelling for a period of time.
