What A2017 covers

A2017 identifies a Permeaderm glove reported as an individual item. Its each-based unit distinguishes it from Permeaderm B and Permeaderm C, which have separate codes reported by the square centimeter. The code is technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation. Report one unit for each glove. This keeps the glove unit distinct from the area-based units used for Permeaderm B and C.

Medicare lists A2017 with carrier-priced status under the physician fee schedule. The Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim using contractor pricing under that schedule; CMS publishes no national payment amount. Coverage is left to the contractor’s judgment. The technical component is reported under A2017, while interpretation is represented 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.

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.
