HCPCS code A2023: InnovaMatrix PD, per 1 mg2026 Medicare rate & RVUs in California

CMS doesn’t publish an office rate for A2023 in California.

Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What A2023 covers

A2023 identifies InnovaMatrix PD, counted by mass. It distinguishes this form from other InnovaMatrix products identified by surface area, including InnovaMatrix FS (A2013) and InnovaMatrix XL or InnovaBRN (A2022). The person billing the product reports the quantity in milligrams; one unit represents 1 mg.

For Medicare, A2023 has physician fee schedule status C: CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor prices each claim under the physician fee schedule. Coverage is left to the contractor’s judgment. CMS classifies A2023 as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code. Report one unit for each milligram furnished, and document the amount used.
