Additional Bone Debridement

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 11047

This is an additional-area treatment performed during wound care to remove damaged or dead bone tissue, used when the affected area is larger than a first, base-level amount already treated. Removing this tissue helps a wound heal by clearing away material that could otherwise slow healing or allow infection to take hold. It's performed and billed alongside the main bone-cleaning procedure for the same wound, not on its own.
