About Q4285: Nu-Dyn DL wound matrix supply

Reports Nu-Dyn DL or DL Mesh by square centimeter when the wound matrix is used with a primary wound application procedure.

Q4285 identifies Nu-Dyn DL or DL Mesh wound matrix by square centimeter for use with a wound-coverage procedure. The material is supplied for placement on a prepared wound bed in settings such as outpatient wound clinics, hospital outpatient departments, or surgical facilities. Wound-care physicians, surgeons, and podiatrists may use it when a graft or matrix application is selected; the product code is distinct from the clinician’s application service.

Report the measured square-centimeter quantity of the documented product with the applicable primary application procedure, not as a standalone service. The record should identify the product, wound site, treated surface area, amount used, and associated procedure. CMS classifies Q4285 as an add-on billed only with a primary procedure and paid within that procedure’s global period. It is technical-component only; a separate code covers interpretation. Select the primary application code based on the procedure performed and applicable site and wound-area criteria.

Q4285 billing questions

Can Q4285 be billed without a primary procedure?

No. CMS identifies Q4285 as an add-on that must be billed with a primary procedure; it is not a standalone service.

Does Q4285 represent the wound application itself?

No. It identifies the Nu-Dyn DL or DL Mesh product by square centimeter. Report the applicable application procedure separately.

How should the quantity be documented?

Document the product used and the measured square-centimeter quantity, along with the wound site, treated area, and associated procedure.

How is Q4285 different from Q4286?

Q4285 identifies Nu-Dyn DL or DL Mesh; Q4286 identifies Nu-Dyn SL or SLW. Match the reported code to the product documented.

What does technical-component-only mean for this code?

CMS classifies Q4285 as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
