Disposable Wound Vacuum Therapy

Virginia rates for HCPCS 97607

This treatment uses a small, single-use device to apply gentle, continuous suction to a wound, which helps draw out fluid, reduce swelling, and encourage new tissue growth. Unlike larger reusable wound vacuum machines, this version uses a compact, disposable unit suited to a smaller wound area. It includes applying the dressing, checking on the wound, and instructing the patient on using the device.
