Pressure-injury care is stage-matched: collagen for shallower injuries, advanced biologics for deeper non-healing ulcers, always with offloading. Heel anatomy leaves little tissue over bone — product without offloading fails.

Advanced pressure ulcer treatment products by stage. Biologics, skin substitutes, and collagen dressings for heel and foot pressure injuries. Nationwide.
Stage it (NPIAP), offload it, then choose collagen versus an advanced biologic. Heels have little tissue over bone. Product on an unoffloaded heel is how you restage the same injury.
Pressure injuries are classified by the National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPIAP) into stages 1 through 4, plus unstageable and deep tissue injuries. Stage 1 and 2 pressure ulcers typically respond to moisture management, pressure redistribution, and collagen dressings that support the wound bed. Stage 3 and 4 pressure injuries often require advanced biologics—cellular tissue products, skin substitutes, or biodynamic hematogel—to address the deeper tissue damage and promote granulation from the wound base. Our team helps you match the right intervention to each wound stage, maximizing healing outcomes while supporting proper reimbursement coding.
Pressure ulcers on the heel and foot present unique clinical challenges. The heel has minimal subcutaneous tissue between the skin and calcaneus, making it highly susceptible to pressure damage. Treatment for pressure ulcers on the heel requires proper offloading devices in addition to biologic wound care products. Foot pressure injuries in diabetic patients carry additional risks due to neuropathy and compromised circulation. We provide both the wound care products and the DME offloading solutions needed for comprehensive heel and foot pressure ulcer management.
Pressure ulcer treatment with advanced biologics has established Medicare reimbursement pathways, but proper documentation is essential for clean claims. We provide wound measurement protocols, product application documentation templates, and HCPCS coding guidance specific to each product in our pressure injury portfolio. Our compliance team stays current with CMS coverage determinations and LCD requirements, so your practice can focus on patient care while we support the documentation that keeps your billing clean.
NPIAP stage, location, and offloading device should be in the same documentation packet as the SKU lot. A CTP on an unoffloaded heel is an expensive way to restage the same injury.
Facility contracts, DME offloading, and Part B biologics are different files. We sell to licensed providers; we do not collapse those tickets into one ‘wound kit’ SKU.
Yes. NPIAP staging should be in the note.
