Frequently Asked Questions:

 

1)  What is U.S. Wound’s mobile wound care, and how does it work? 

U.S. Wound brings specialized wound care directly to the patient—at home, in assisted living, or in a skilled nursing facility—so travel isn’t required. A licensed clinician comes to you with the supplies and equipment needed to assess, clean, and treat wounds. We also educate patients and caregivers, coordinate follow-ups, and share updates with the rest of your care team.

 

2)  What kinds of wounds do you treat? 

We manage most acute and chronic wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers, venous/arterial leg ulcers, pressure injuries, surgical wounds, traumatic wounds, and post-radiation or post-infection wounds. Treatment may include debridement, compression therapy, offloading, advanced dressings, negative pressure wound therapy (wound vac), and biologic/adjunctive therapies when appropriate. If a wound requires hospital-level care, we’ll help route you quickly.

 

3)  Who is a good candidate for mobile wound care? 

Patients who have difficulty traveling, are homebound, live in senior communities, or need frequent wound dressing changes often benefit the most. Mobile care is also helpful for patients with multiple chronic conditions, recent surgeries, or recurrent ulcers. If you’re unsure, we can review your situation and advise on fit.

 

4)  Do I need a referral, and how is care coordinated with my doctors? 

A referral can be helpful but isn’t always required—requirements vary by insurance and state. With your permission, we send visit notes, photos, and care plans to your primary care provider, surgeon, podiatrist, home health agency, or facility staff. We work as part of your existing team to keep everyone aligned on your plan of care.

 

5)  What should I expect at the first visit? 

Your clinician will review your history and medications, assess the wound(s), measure and—if consented—photograph for progress tracking, and screen for infection or vascular issues. We’ll create a personalized care plan, perform the first treatment, and set a follow-up schedule. You’ll also receive education on dressing changes, nutrition, offloading, and warning signs to watch for.

 

6)  How often are visits, and how long do they take?

Frequency is based on wound severity and your overall health—many patients are seen weekly, while complex wounds may need more frequent care. A typical visit lasts 30–60 minutes, allowing time for assessment, treatment, and education. As wounds improve, we may taper visit frequency while monitoring progress.

 

7)  Do you accept insurance, and what will it cost me? 

U.S. Wound works with many major plans, including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers, but coverage depends on your specific policy and location. We can verify benefits before you start so you know expected out-of-pocket costs such as copays or deductibles. If you’re paying privately, we’ll provide a clear estimate and discuss options.

 

8)  How do you ensure safety, infection control, and privacy in the home? 

Our clinicians use medical-grade supplies, follow sterile/clean technique, and wear appropriate PPE. Sharps and medical waste are handled and disposed of per regulation. We protect your health information under HIPAA and use secure systems for documentation and communication.

 

9)  What if my wound looks worse or I think it’s infected? 

Call us right away if you notice increased pain, redness, swelling, warmth, odor, drainage, fever, or a rapidly enlarging wound. We’ll triage the situation, expedite a visit, and—within our clinicians’ scope—coordinate further evaluation, prescriptions, or diagnostics. For severe symptoms like uncontrolled bleeding, high fever with chills, or signs of sepsis, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department first.

 

10)  How do I get started, reschedule, or confirm service availability in my area? 

Contact us to confirm that mobile wound care is available where you live and to schedule an initial evaluation. We’ll gather a brief medical history and insurance details, verify benefits, and set your first visit. If you need to cancel or reschedule, just let us know as soon as possible so we can offer your slot to another patient.
