About Q4317: Vitograft skin substitute supply by area
Reports Vitograft skin substitute supplied for wound treatment, measured by square centimeter and billed with the related primary procedure.
Q4317 identifies Vitograft, a skin substitute product supplied for wound treatment, with reporting based on square centimeters. It may be used during treatment of wounds such as chronic diabetic foot or venous leg ulcers. A physician or other qualified clinician typically applies the product as part of a wound procedure in an office or outpatient setting.

CMS classifies Q4317 as an add-on code: bill it only with a primary procedure, and its payment is within that procedure’s global period.
