HCPCS code A4927: Gloves, Non-Sterile, Per 100

No. Coverage depends on the patient's specific medical condition and whether the gloves are considered reasonable and necessary. For example, if the gloves are a general supply for a home health agency visit, they may be bundled into the home health episode payment, or if they are for a non-covered service, they may not be covered separately. Supplies associated with dialysis are often covered.

You bill for the number of units of 100. If a patient is prescribed one box of 100 non-sterile gloves per month, you would bill 1 unit of A4927 per month. If they are authorized for 4 boxes, you bill 4 units.

You must obtain Prior Authorization (PA) from the payer. The medical record must contain clear documentation from the treating practitioner justifying the exceptional need for the increased quantity, detailing why the standard limit is insufficient for the patient's condition.
