Grafix is regulated as a human cells, tissue, or a cellular or tissue-based product (HCT/P) under 21 CFR part 1271 and section 361 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act.

Description Three-dimensional matrix designed for application directly to acute and chronic wounds, including but not limited to: diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, and burns.

2 Cryopreserved placental membranes have been shown to be beneficial in supporting natural wound repair in the following ways1: Serves as a barrier from the environment and thus protects the tissue from infection Reduces inflammation Reduces scarring by supporting wound closure without excessive fibrosis Grafix is an alternative to autologous skin grafting that eliminates the pain, co-morbidities, and procedure time associated with obtaining autologous grafts. Clinical Data Grafix has been studied in a multi-center (n=20), randomized, controlled clinical trial, Protocol 302, which demonstrated overwhelming efficacy of Grafix compared to the control (standard of care included surgical debridement, off-loading, and non-adherent dressings) in the closure of diabetic foot ulcers over 12 weeks (62% vs.)

3 , p= , n=97).2. A retrospective study of the use of Grafix in chronic refractory wounds included diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and pressure ulcers. This study included a total of 66 patients with 67 wounds. Average time to closure in these wounds was weeks. More than 75% of wounds were closed after 12 weeks of care after previously being treated unsuccessfully for an average of 38 weeks. Additionally, 75% of these patients had failed other wound therapies prior to Grafix and 50% had failed two previous wound References: 1.

6 For Medicare and other health insurance programs to ensure health care claims are processed in an orderly and consistent manner, standardized coding systems are essential. The HCPCS Level II code set is one of the standard code sets used by medical coders and billers for this purpose. The other, HCPCS Level I coding set, is comprised of CPT (Current Procedural Terminology), copyrighted by the American Medical Association (AMA). The HCPCS codes are supplied for informational purposes only and do not represent a statement, promise, or guarantee by Osiris that these codes will be appropriate or that Reimbursement will be made. Coding practice will vary by site of care, patient condition, range of service provided, local payer instructions, and other factors.

7 The decision as to how to complete a Reimbursement form, including amount to bill, is exclusively the responsibility of the provider. The provider is ultimately responsible for verifying coverage with the patient's payer source. 2015 Reimbursement Guide ICD-9 Diagnosis Codes*.
