Joe Bradley will tell you the same thing he tells his own staff: epidemiology first, then MAC, then SKU. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 13.2% of adults in St. Louis have diagnosed diabetes — 1.2 points above the U.S. 12% figure. 9.4% of adults 18–64 here currently lack health insurance (CDC PLACES ACCESS2, 2023).

Use the contact form or book a 15-minute call with Joe Bradley. Bring specialty, monthly wound or joint volume, and whether you bill J5 FFS, Advantage, workers’ comp, or cash-pay.
