About Q4269: Surgraft XT wound tissue product
Reports the Surgraft XT wound tissue product by area when supplied for a wound treatment and billed with its primary procedure.
Q4269 reports Surgraft XT by the square centimeter as a wound tissue product used in wound treatment. It may be encountered in outpatient wound clinics, hospital departments, and office-based wound care when a clinician applies the product to a wound. The product code represents the tissue product, not the clinician’s wound assessment or the application service itself.
Report the measured area of Surgraft XT supplied, supported by the product record and documentation of the treated wound and amount used. This is an add-on code: bill it only with a qualifying primary procedure, and CMS pays it within that procedure’s global period. CMS classifies it as technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation. The record should identify Surgraft XT specifically so it is distinguishable from other products in the Surgraft series.
