CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 15.3% of adults in Baton Rouge have diagnosed diabetes — 3.3 points above the U.S. 12% figure. Census city-proper population is 227,470. If you are adding orthobiologic treatments, start with that epidemiology and with Novitas Solutions (JH) — not with a “near me” clinic listing. Hawk Medical ships nationwide; Joe Bradley’s own practice uses the same product classes.
National Orthobiologic Treatments for Your Practice notes (how the product actually works)JH reviewers still want serial wound measurements and conservative-care history before CTPs, whether diabetes in Baton Rouge is 15.3% or not. PLACES is planning data. The LCD is the claim.
If you already buy orthobiologic treatments elsewhere, use this page as a check: homologous-use language, current Novitas Solutions article IDs, and PLACES 15.3% diabetes as the epidemiologic floor. If that is how you already practice, the catalog will fit.
CDC PLACES (2023, crude prevalence) estimates 15.3% of adults — 3.3 points above the U.S. 12% figure. Obesity is 37.9%; arthritis is 26.4%. That is place-level BRFSS modeling, not a clinic census and not a Baton Rouge trial.
Body copy and schema dateModified follow a pinned content version date, not a daily timestamp. CDC and CMS figures are cited to the public reports named on the page. Recheck MAC LCDs before each utilization change — those move faster than a landing page.
A 510(k)-cleared device has a different regulatory file than a 361 HCT/P. Do not store, bill, or describe them as the same SKU family. Your SOP should split receiving and indication language.
Use the contact form or book a 15-minute call with Joe Bradley. Bring specialty, monthly wound or joint volume, and whether you bill JH FFS, Advantage, workers’ comp, or cash-pay.
Ask for the IFU, the lot-traceability packet, and the Novitas Solutions article IDs for the codes you actually bill. If the sales sheet cannot produce those, do not put it in a Baton Rouge fridge. That is how an account with us starts.
