What A2027 covers
A2027 identifies MatriDerm, a collagen-and-elastin dermal matrix used in wound and burn reconstruction, including as a scaffold in procedures that may also use a skin graft. The product is measured by surface area. It may be used in surgical settings by clinicians treating complex wounds or burns; the associated application or reconstruction procedure is reported separately as the primary service.
Report A2027 only with a primary procedure, and count units according to the documented square centimeters of MatriDerm supplied. The record should identify the product, treatment site, amount used, and the primary procedure performed. CMS treats A2027 as an add-on paid within the primary procedure’s global period. It is technical-component-only; a separate code represents interpretation, when applicable.
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.

How to choose
- 15271Skin substitute graft
- 15271 reports a skin-substitute application service for qualifying sites and areas; A2027 identifies the MatriDerm product by square centimeter.
- 15272Skin substitute graft
- 15272 reports additional qualifying application area under the skin-substitute procedure family. It does not represent the MatriDerm supply itself.
- A2021Wound matrix
- A2021 identifies Neomatrix, a different named product. Use the product-specific supply code rather than choosing by the shared per-square-centimeter unit.
A2027 billing questions
Is A2027 reported by wound area or product area?
The code is measured per square centimeter of MatriDerm. Document the amount of product used and support the units billed.
Can A2027 be billed by itself?
No. CMS identifies it as an add-on code that must be billed with a primary procedure.
Which application code should accompany A2027?
Select the primary procedure based on the service performed, treatment site, and applicable procedure criteria. A2027 does not replace the application or reconstruction procedure.
How does the global-period rule affect A2027?
Payment for A2027 is included within the global period of the primary procedure with which it is billed.
What does technical-component-only mean for this code?
A2027 represents the technical component; a separate code represents interpretation when applicable.
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.
