PRINCETON, N.J., Nov. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (Nasdaq: IART), a leading global medical technology company, commends the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on its Calendar Year 2026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule and Outpatient Prospective Payment System rules. All Integra dermal regenerative templates, decellularized dermal scaffolds and amniotic tissue membranes, which are classified as skin substitutes by CMS, are included in the ruling. These products – Integra® matrices, PriMatrix®, Cytal® and AmnioExcel® – utilize four different technology platforms for a wide range of complex cases in wound reconstruction. Integra’s diverse portfolio spans multiple regulatory pathways positively impacted by these rulings—including the FDA-approved (PMA), world-renowned flagship Integra® Dermal Regeneration Template.

“We applaud CMS for taking this unprecedented step to meaningfully modernize payment structures that prioritize both innovation and improved outcomes,” said Mojdeh Poul, president and chief executive officer, Integra LifeSciences. “The uniform reimbursement rate across care settings enables us to expand access to our diverse portfolio of products. No other company offers this breadth of cost-effective wound reconstruction solutions backed by science, supported by clinical evidence, and aligned to the reimbursement changes.”

“This is a pivotal advancement for our industry and the patients we serve,” said Robert T. Davis, Jr., executive vice president and president of Integra’s Tissue Technologies division. “With a robust commercial footprint already established in the hospital setting, we are poised to make a lasting impact as the procedural landscape evolves. We are also expanding our commercial presence across the continuum of care to benefit as many patients as possible. We believe the new policy will reward innovation, quality, and patient outcomes – areas where Integra has consistently led.”
