What 15152 covers

This add-on reports additional recipient area treated with a tissue-cultured skin autograft on the trunk, arms, or legs of an infant or child. Burn and plastic surgeons commonly use cultured autologous skin in extensive burn care when grafting large wound areas. The code represents each additional 1% of body area treated, rather than another 100-square-centimeter increment.

Report 15152 with the applicable primary cultured-skin-graft procedure, generally 15150 for the initial area. Documentation should identify the treated body sites, the total area grafted, and the patient’s body-area calculation supporting each additional 1% unit. CMS classifies 15152 as an add-on: it is not billed by itself, and its payment is included within the primary procedure’s global period.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

15152 billing questions

When should 15152 be chosen instead of 15151?

Use 15152 for each additional 1% of body area in an infant or child. Code 15151 represents additional area in 100-square-centimeter increments.

Which primary code is reported with 15152?

Report it with the primary cultured skin autograft service for the initial area, generally 15150 for the trunk, arms, or legs.

Can 15152 be billed by itself?

No. CMS identifies it as an add-on code that must be billed with a primary procedure.

How many units should be reported?

Report a unit for each additional 1% of the infant’s or child’s body area treated. The record should support the body-area calculation and treated extent.

What documentation supports this code?

Document the cultured autograft, recipient sites on the trunk, arms, or legs, total treated area, and the calculation supporting each additional 1% unit.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
