Wound care

About G0465: Autologous PRP treatment for diabetic ulcer

Reports preparation and application of a patient’s platelet-rich plasma with an FDA-cleared device to treat a diabetic chronic wound or ulcer.

G0465 describes a treatment in which the patient’s blood is processed with an FDA-cleared device to produce platelet-rich plasma or another blood-derived product, which is then applied to a diabetic chronic wound or ulcer. It is used in wound-care settings by clinicians treating chronic diabetic ulcers, including physicians and podiatrists. The code covers preparation and application as one treatment; it is not selected by wound area or billed separately for each step.

Report the service for a treatment of a diabetic chronic wound or ulcer, with documentation identifying the wound, its diabetic context, the device and blood-derived product used, and the application performed. The code has a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When performed in the same session with other procedures subject to the multiple procedure rule, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service, and co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
