What Q4329 covers
Q4329 identifies the Singlay wound-graft product supplied for wound coverage; it does not describe the clinician’s application service. Wound-care clinicians and surgeons may use the product during treatment of wounds in settings such as outpatient wound clinics and hospital outpatient departments. The specific product used, rather than wound size alone, determines whether Q4329 is the appropriate product code.
Report Q4329 only with a primary procedure, such as the applicable skin-substitute application code selected for the wound site and treated area. The quantity is reported by square centimeter, so documentation should identify Singlay and support the amount used, including the product dimensions and treated wound. CMS classifies Q4329 as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code. Payment for this add-on falls within the primary procedure’s global period.
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.
