About Wound Debridement
Wound debridement removes dead, damaged, or infected tissue so a wound can heal more effectively. It is used for chronic wounds, ulcers, infected wounds, and some surgical wounds. The depth and amount of tissue removed can vary from skin and subcutaneous tissue to deeper tissue.
Understanding Your Bill
Debridement is usually billed by tissue depth and wound size. Larger or deeper wounds, repeat visits, facility fees, dressings, and related wound-care supplies can all affect the total cost.
