About A2021: Neomatrix wound matrix supply by area

Report A2021 for Neomatrix wound matrix supplied by square centimeter with the primary wound application procedure for which it is used.

A2021 identifies Neomatrix wound matrix by the area supplied for wound treatment. Wound-care clinicians and surgeons may use the matrix in outpatient wound clinics or surgical settings as part of treatment for a wound. The product line is distinct from the clinician’s work to prepare the wound and apply the material; those services are reported under the applicable procedure code.

Report the product in square-centimeter units and pair it with the primary procedure for the wound application. Documentation should identify Neomatrix, the treated wound site, the area covered, and the associated application procedure. CMS classifies A2021 as an add-on code: it is billed only with a primary procedure, and its payment falls within that procedure’s global period. CMS also classifies it as technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation.
