Medtech maker Spiracur was awarded 2 new Medicare reimbursement codes for its negative-pressure SNaP wound care system, a device which aims to help physicians heal wounds more rapidly for their patients.
The HCPCS codes G0456 and G0457, which were issued from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, are for clinical services using a mechanically-powered device, providing an effective, off-the-shelf solution for negative pressure wound therapy, Spiracur said.
