23 Miss. Code. R. 204-1.15 - Bone Replacement Graft
A. The Division of
Medicaid defines a bone replacement graft as a procedure which involves the use
of osseous autografts, osseous allografts, or non-osseous grafts to stimulate
bone formation or periodontal regeneration when the disease process has led to
a deformity of the bone. This procedure does not include flap entry and
closure. The Division of Medicaid defines the following as:
1. Osseous autograft as a graft taken from
one part of the body and placed in another site on the same
individual.
2. Osseous allograft as
a graft between two or more individuals allogenic at one or more
loci.
3. Non-osseous as a graft not
composed of bone such as tendon or ligament tissue, and the material can be
artificial, synthetic or natural.
B. Providers must bill the appropriate dental
procedure code when providing this service.
