What A2002 covers
A2002 represents Mirragen, a bioactive glass-fiber wound matrix used as a material in wound treatment. Wound-care clinicians and surgeons may apply it to a chronic or hard-to-heal wound during care in an office wound clinic or another outpatient setting. The code identifies the product quantity, rather than the clinician’s wound evaluation or a separate debridement service.
Report units based on the documented square centimeters of Mirragen furnished, and retain the product and treated-area details in the record. A2002 is an add-on: submit it only with a primary procedure, and its payment falls within that procedure’s global period. CMS classifies it as technical-component-only; a separate code accounts for interpretation. The record should support the specific product used and the quantity reported.

A2002 billing questions
Can A2002 be billed by itself?
No. CMS identifies A2002 as an add-on code, so it must be billed with a primary procedure.
How are units determined?
The code is measured per square centimeter. Document the amount of Mirragen furnished and the wound area treated to support the units.
Does A2002 include wound assessment or debridement?
A2002 identifies the Mirragen product, not the wound assessment or a debridement service. Report separately performed services under their applicable codes.
Does the code include an interpretation component?
No. CMS classifies A2002 as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code.
Can A2002 be reported outside the primary procedure's global period?
The add-on is paid within the primary procedure's global period. It is not a stand-alone service.
