Adult arthritis here is 26% (CDC PLACES 2023, crude). That is the joint-pain backdrop for PRP and orthobiologics — not a promise that every arthritic knee is a candidate.

We are not going to invent a Wilmington warehouse or a five-star local review. What you get is collagen wound care from FDA-registered sources, lot paperwork, and someone who has run the same SOPs in clinic — Joe Bradley. The local numbers on this page are CDC PLACES and CMS JM, not marketing adjectives.
CDC PLACES (2023, crude prevalence) estimates 10.7% of adults — 1.3 points below the U.S. 12% figure. Obesity is 31.9%; arthritis is 26%. That is place-level BRFSS modeling, not a clinic census and not a Wilmington trial.
Yes. Tissue products come from FDA-registered banks with donor screening and lot traceability. Your receiving SOP should file IFU, lot, and indication with the chart. That packet is what JM reviewers and surveyors expect — not a brochure.
North Carolina is in CMS MAC JM, 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.
Yes — receiving, storage, indication, and documentation templates are part of onboarding. SOPs still have to be adopted as the clinic’s own procedures; we do not pretend to be the medical director in Wilmington.
Ask for the IFU, the lot-traceability packet, and the Palmetto GBA article IDs for the codes you actually bill. If the sales sheet cannot produce those, do not put it in a Wilmington fridge. That is how an account with us starts.
