What A2015 covers

A2015 identifies Phoenix wound matrix supplied for application to a wound. It is a product code, not a code for the clinician’s wound assessment or the application work itself. Wound-care clinicians may use the matrix during treatment in an outpatient wound clinic or another setting where wound procedures are performed.

Report the code only with a primary procedure, using units that reflect the documented square centimeters of Phoenix matrix furnished. Keep product and quantity details in the record so the billed units can be traced to the material used. CMS treats A2015 as an add-on code, paid within the primary procedure’s global period; it is not reported by itself. CMS also identifies it as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code.

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.

A2015 billing questions

The unit measure is per square centimeter. Document the Phoenix product and the quantity furnished so the units reported can be supported.

Is A2015 the code for applying the matrix?

No. A2015 identifies the Phoenix matrix product; report the applicable primary procedure for the service that applies it.

How does the global-period rule affect A2015?

Payment for A2015 is within the primary procedure’s global period, and the product code is reported only with that primary procedure.

Does A2015 include interpretation?

No. CMS classifies A2015 as technical-component-only and indicates that a separate code covers interpretation.

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.
