What Q4386 covers

Q4386 identifies Acesso Tri-Fa wound graft material, with the quantity reported in square centimeters. It represents the product supplied, not a standalone wound-care service. In outpatient wound care, a treating clinician may place the material on a prepared wound bed during a separately coded graft-application procedure. Select this code when Acesso Tri-Fa is the product furnished; the code is not selected by wound severity or size alone.

CMS classifies Q4386 as an add-on, so report it only with an applicable primary procedure; its payment falls within that procedure’s global period. CMS also classifies it as technical-component-only, with a separate code covering interpretation. Documentation should identify the product, wound site, quantity in square centimeters, and associated primary procedure. The product-specific documentation supports distinguishing Q4386 from codes for other wound materials.

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

Q4385Wound product
Q4385 identifies Apollo FT. Use Q4386 for Acesso Tri-Fa; the product actually furnished determines the supply code.
Q4387Skin substitute
Q4387 identifies Neothelium FT. It is not interchangeable on the claim with Q4386 when Acesso Tri-Fa was furnished.
Q4388Wound product
Q4388 identifies a different Neothelium product. Q4386 is specific to Acesso Tri-Fa.

Q4386 billing questions

When should Q4386 be reported instead of another wound-product code?

Report Q4386 when the material furnished is Acesso Tri-Fa. Codes for other named products, such as Apollo FT or Neothelium FT, identify different supplies.

Can Q4386 be billed by itself?

No. CMS identifies it as an add-on that must be reported with a primary procedure. Payment is within that procedure’s global period.

How should the quantity be reported?

Report the amount of Acesso Tri-Fa in square centimeters. The record should support the product and quantity furnished.

Does Q4386 include interpretation?

No. CMS classifies Q4386 as technical-component-only and indicates that a separate code covers interpretation.

What documentation supports reporting Q4386?

Document Acesso Tri-Fa as the product used, the wound site, the square-centimeter quantity, and the associated primary application procedure.

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.
