Biologic grafts derived from human placental tissue for wound coverage and tissue regeneration.
Amniotic Skin Grafts: What You Should Know
Amniotic skin grafts are regenerative wound dressings made from the innermost layer of the placenta. They're packed with natural growth factors, proteins, and healing components that help stubborn wounds close faster.
These grafts are already used in podiatry and wound care clinics across the country — and they’re typically covered by insurance when the wound meets medical necessity.
1. What They Are
The grafts come from donated human amniotic tissue that’s cleaned, processed, and preserved. They’re applied like a thin sheet over chronic or hard-to-heal wounds and help jumpstart the healing process.
2. How They Help
Amniotic grafts act like a biologic bandage that:
Shields the wound
Reduces inflammation
Encourages cell growth and tissue repair
Lowers the chance of scarring
They're especially useful when nothing else has worked.
3. Common Uses
Doctors often use them to treat:
Diabetic foot ulcers
Venous leg ulcers
Pressure sores
Post-surgical wounds
Burns or injuries that won’t close
4. Medicare & Insurance Coverage
Most insurance plans — including Medicare Part B — cover amniotic grafts when used in-office and properly documented. We provide everything your clinic needs to stay compliant, including templates, guidelines, and billing support.
5. How It’s Applied
The process is simple. After cleaning and debriding the wound:
The graft is placed directly on the wound
It’s covered with a secondary dressing
Follow-up visits are scheduled as needed
This can all be done right in your office, with minimal setup or downtime.
6. Why Practices Use It
Reimbursable treatment option
Helps improve wound healing outcomes
Can reduce risk of infection or amputation
