What Q4327 covers
Q4327 identifies Duoamnion, a named amniotic membrane allograft supplied for application to a wound. Wound-care clinicians, including physicians and podiatrists, may use it as a covering on a prepared wound bed during outpatient wound treatment. The product line is distinct from the procedure used to prepare and apply the graft; wound debridement or other wound management may occur in the same encounter when separately supported.
Report Q4327 only with a primary procedure, commonly an appropriate skin-substitute application code from the 15271–15278 family, selected for the treated site and wound area. The product record and clinical documentation should identify Duoamnion, the wound treated, and the square centimeters furnished. CMS classifies Q4327 as an add-on code paid within the primary procedure’s global period, so it is not a stand-alone service. CMS also classifies it as technical-component-only; interpretation is represented by a separate code.

How to choose
- Q4328Wound product
- Q4328 identifies Most, while Q4327 identifies Duoamnion. The product documentation determines which code to report.
- Q4329Wound graft
- Q4329 identifies Singlay, not Duoamnion. Do not select between them based only on the shared per-square-centimeter unit.
- 15271Skin substitute graft
- 15271 reports a primary skin-substitute application procedure; Q4327 reports the Duoamnion product as an add-on. The appropriate application code depends on the wound site and area.
Q4327 billing questions
What distinguishes Q4327 from another per-square-centimeter graft code?
Q4327 identifies Duoamnion specifically. Select the code that matches the product record rather than choosing among graft codes by unit of measure alone.
Can Q4327 be billed by itself?
No. CMS identifies it as an add-on code that must be reported with a primary procedure; an appropriate skin-substitute application procedure is a common pairing.
How should units be determined?
The code is measured per square centimeter. The product and wound documentation should support the square centimeters reported.
Does Q4327 include interpretation?
No. CMS classifies Q4327 as technical-component-only and indicates that a separate code covers interpretation.
What documentation supports reporting Q4327?
Document the Duoamnion product used, the wound treated, the application procedure, and the square centimeters furnished.
