Bonesupport, an orthobiologics company, said CMS finalized a Diagnosis-Related Group reassignment for Cerament G, an injectable synthetic bone void filler, in the fiscal 2027 Medicare Inpatient Prospective Payment System final rule.

The change takes effect Oct. 1, 2026, and assigns qualifying Cerament G cases to the highest reimbursing DRGs within their respective clinical categories, according to an Aug. 3 news release from the company.

The DRG reassignment applies to gentamicin-eluting bone void fillers, a category in which Cerament G currently is the only product.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
