This procedure does not include flap entry and closure. The Division of Medicaid defines the following as:
1. Osseous autograft as a graft taken from
one part of the body and placed in another site on the same
individual.
2. Osseous allograft as
a graft between two or more individuals allogenic at one or more
loci.

composed of bone such as tendon or ligament tissue, and the material can be
artificial, synthetic or natural.
