About Q4136: EzDerm wound matrix supply
Q4136 represents EzDerm, a porcine-derived wound matrix reported for the product used with a primary wound procedure, such as skin substitute application.
Q4136 identifies EzDerm, a porcine-derived acellular dermal matrix supplied as a wound covering. It may be used in wound care, including selected partial-thickness burns and skin-graft donor sites. The code represents the product, not the clinician’s wound preparation or application service. Wound-care clinicians and surgeons may use the matrix in an office, outpatient department, or other surgical setting, depending on the patient’s treatment plan.
Report Q4136 only with a primary procedure; CMS treats it as an add-on and includes its payment within that procedure’s global period. The product is measured per square centimeter, so documentation should identify EzDerm and the amount used, along with the wound site and the associated procedure. CMS classifies Q4136 as technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation. The reported product quantity should be supported by the operative or treatment record.
