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.
