If a sales sheet cannot tell you that Chattanooga is JJ (Palmetto GBA) and that adult diabetes here is 13.9% (PLACES 2023), it is selling units, not a program. That is the 361 hctp compliant products conversation we actually have.
National 361 HCT/P Compliant Tissue Products notes (how the product actually works)12.7% of adults 18–64 here currently lack health insurance (CDC PLACES ACCESS2, 2023). Cash-pay PRP and Medicare CTPs cannot share one consent script. A city under 250k with 181,099 residents will still mix those payers. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 13.9% of adults in Chattanooga have diagnosed diabetes — 1.9 points above the U.S. 12% figure. Build two utilization policies if you do both cash PRP and Medicare CTPs.

Tennessee is in CMS MAC JJ, administered by Palmetto GBA. CTP and skin-substitute coverage is written at the MAC level. Confirm the current LCD/article before you set utilization — we help practices map product to those rules; we do not override them.
No. Palmetto GBA writes coverage. We train staff on documentation patterns those articles already require (wound measurements, conservative care, units). That is support, not a coverage guarantee.
Tennessee includes Diabetes Belt counties in CDC’s published geography. That supports a higher index of suspicion for DFU and chronic-wound volume. It is not a license to skip offloading, vascular assessment, or JJ documentation.
Start with one protocol — one joint or one wound type — for 90 days. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 13.9% of adults in Chattanooga have diagnosed diabetes — 1.9 points above the U.S. 12% figure. Name a staff owner for photos, lots, and centrifuge logs. Then expand the fridge.
