Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Amnigraft a medical provider?
No. Amnigraft is an educational website and directory. We explain amniotic membrane grafts in plain English and help you find independent licensed providers. Only a licensed clinician who has evaluated you can say whether a graft is appropriate for your situation.
What is an amniotic membrane graft?
An amniotic membrane graft is processed tissue from the innermost layer of the placenta, used by licensed providers as a protective covering or barrier — for example over a chronic wound, the surface of the eye, a surgical site, or a dental graft site.
Are amniotic membrane grafts FDA-approved?
Amniotic membrane used this way is generally regulated by the FDA as a human cell and tissue product (an '361 HCT/P') for homologous use, not reviewed and approved the way a drug or device is. That's a different regulatory category — and a different use — from injectable amniotic products marketed for joints or 'regeneration,' which this site does not cover.
What specialties use amniotic grafts?
Wound care and podiatry use them on chronic and diabetic wounds, ophthalmologists use them on the eye surface, oral surgeons and periodontists use them in gum and implant procedures, and general, orthopedic and OB/GYN surgeons use them as a barrier or wrap during surgery.
How is a graft different from an amniotic injection?
A graft is a sheet or membrane of processed tissue placed directly onto a wound, eye surface, or surgical site by the provider. An injection is a liquid product delivered by needle, often marketed for joints or pain, and is a separate — and generally less established and less regulated — use that this site does not cover.
Will insurance or Medicare cover an amniotic graft?
It depends on the specific use and product. Coverage rules for skin substitutes and other graft uses change, and what's covered for a wound graft can differ from what's covered for a surgical or dental graft. Ask the provider what they'll bill and check with your insurer or Medicare before treatment.
How do providers receive referrals?
Licensed providers can list for free, or reserve an exclusive referral territory — one ZIP code, ten ZIP codes, or a whole state — so that patients in that area who ask for help are connected to them.
