What Q4115 covers

Q4115 identifies AlloSkin, a human skin allograft product supplied for wound coverage. It may be used by clinicians treating wounds that require biologic skin coverage, including chronic ulcers or surgical wounds. The surgeon, podiatrist, or wound-care clinician applies the product in an outpatient wound-care or surgical setting. This code represents the product, not the work of preparing the wound or applying the graft.

Report Q4115 for the AlloSkin product furnished, using the HCPCS unit measure of one square centimeter and documenting the product, quantity, and treated wound. Pair it with the primary wound-treatment procedure; CMS classifies it as an add-on and places payment within that procedure's global period. This is a technical-component-only code, with interpretation represented by a separate code. The documentation should identify AlloSkin specifically so it is distinguishable from other skin substitute products.

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.

Q4115 billing questions

Is Q4115 the code for applying the graft?

What unit does Q4115 use?

The unit is one square centimeter. Document the AlloSkin quantity furnished and reported.

Can Q4115 be reported by itself?

No. CMS classifies it as an add-on code that must be billed with a primary procedure, with payment within that procedure's global period.

What documentation supports Q4115?

Record the product as AlloSkin, the quantity furnished, the wound treated, and the primary wound-treatment procedure performed.

Q4115 identifies AlloSkin, while Q4123 identifies AlloSkin RT. Report the code matching the product actually furnished.

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.
