About Q4127: Talymed wound matrix supply
Report Q4127 for Talymed wound matrix supplied for wound treatment, measured by the area used and billed with the related primary procedure.
Q4127 identifies Talymed, a wound matrix product used in wound care. It represents the product supplied for application to a wound, rather than the clinician’s work to prepare or apply the material. Wound-care clinicians and surgeons may use it during treatment of a wound when the product is selected for the patient’s wound and the applicable procedure is performed.
Report the product in square-centimeter units, supported by the product used and the documented area treated. Q4127 is an add-on code: bill it only with a primary procedure, and CMS pays it within that procedure’s global period. CMS classifies it as technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation. The record should identify Talymed, the treated wound, the amount used, and the associated primary procedure.

Q4127 billing questions
How is Q4127 different from the wound application code?
Q4127 reports the Talymed product. The application code reports the clinician’s service applying a skin substitute or similar material to the wound.
How should units be reported?
Report the amount used in square centimeters. Document the treated area and the quantity of Talymed applied.
Can Q4127 be billed by itself?
No. CMS identifies it as an add-on code that must be billed with a primary procedure.
What does the technical-component designation mean?
CMS classifies Q4127 as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code. Do not treat this product code as the interpretation service.
Does Q4127 have its own global period?
It is paid within the global period of the primary procedure with which it is billed.
What documentation supports reporting Q4127?
Document the wound treated, the use of Talymed, the quantity applied in square centimeters, and the associated primary 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 indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
