New Report: The Skin Sub Overage Paradox

September 1, 2026

Intellicure Analytics has released a new report examining what happened to skin substitute sizing after the 2026 Medicare payment reset.

Doing something no other company in the world can easily do, “The Skin Sub Overage Paradox” puts a year and a half of non-HOPD CTP applications against one question: How big was the product, and how big was the wound? The answer is not the one the fraud-and-abuse coverage would predict.

Readers will find why the pattern looks like it is governed by something other than clinician behavior, why the anomaly nobody is discussing may matter more than the one everybody is, and why a fixed percentage threshold cannot mean the same thing at every wound size.

The report is free to read. Sign up for a free membership at IntellicureAnalytics.ai and it opens in your browser. No cost, no sales call, just free registration. Read it here: intellicureanalytics.ai/skin-sub-overage-paradox/
