Skin Graft, Sensitive Area (Thin Layer)

New Mexico rates for HCPCS 15115

This service transplants a layer of the patient's own skin, taken from elsewhere on the body, to cover a wound on a sensitive or highly visible area such as the face, scalp, hands, feet, or genitals. It covers the first section of the area being treated. This is used when a wound in one of these areas is too large to close on its own and needs its own skin covering to heal well.
