What Q4247 covers

Q4247 represents the Amniotext patch product measured by square centimeter, rather than a wound-care evaluation or the act of placing the patch. A physician or other qualified clinician may place it over a prepared wound bed as part of wound treatment in an office or hospital outpatient setting. The product amount is reported separately from the application service.

Report Q4247 only with the primary procedure for the patch application; CMS treats it as an add-on and includes its payment within that procedure’s global period. Select units from the square-centimeter quantity of product represented, and retain documentation identifying the product and amount furnished. CMS classifies the code as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code. The physician fee schedule assigns no work or malpractice RVUs to Q4247; its listed RVUs are practice expense.

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.

Q4247 billing questions

Can Q4247 be reported by itself?

No. CMS identifies it as an add-on code, so report it with the applicable primary wound-application procedure.

How are Q4247 units determined?

The code is measured per square centimeter. Document the Amniotext product and the square-centimeter quantity furnished.

How does Q4247 differ from Q4245?

Both identify Amniotext, but Q4247 is for the patch measured per square centimeter; Q4245 is measured per cubic centimeter.

Is interpretation included in Q4247?

CMS classifies Q4247 as technical-component-only and indicates that a separate code covers interpretation.

Does Q4247 have its own global period?

No separate global period is assigned. Payment for this add-on is within the primary procedure’s global period.

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.
