What A2024 covers

A2024 identifies the Resolve or Xenopatch wound matrix furnished for wound treatment. It represents the product amount, not the clinician’s work to prepare the wound or apply the matrix. Clinicians commonly place these products over a prepared wound during wound care, including in an office setting. The related application procedure describes the work of applying the product; for example, billing code 15271 may be relevant for qualifying wounds on the trunk, arms, or legs.

Report units according to the square centimeters of product furnished, and document the product, wound site, treated area, amount applied, and corresponding application procedure. CMS classifies A2024 as an add-on code: bill it only with a primary procedure, with payment within that procedure’s global period. It is a technical-component-only code; a separate code covers interpretation. A2024 does not represent a separately reportable professional interpretation.

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.

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.
