CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 10.4% of adults in Grand Rapids have diagnosed diabetes — 1.6 points below the U.S. 12% figure. Census city-proper population is 198,917.

Hawk Medical ships nationwide; Joe Bradley’s own practice uses the same product classes.
National Biologic Therapy for Osteoarthritis notes (how the product actually works)America’s Health Rankings (BRFSS 2024) only publishes state diabetes as a range nationally (Colorado 8.4% to West Virginia 18.4%). For Grand Rapids we use CDC PLACES instead of interpolating a fake city rate from that range. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 10.4% of adults in Grand Rapids have diagnosed diabetes — 1.6 points below the U.S. 12% figure.
If you already buy osteoarthritis biologic therapy elsewhere, use this page as a check: homologous-use language, current WPS Government Health Administrators article IDs, and PLACES 10.4% diabetes as the epidemiologic floor. If that is how you already practice, the catalog will fit.

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.
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 J8 reviewers and surveyors expect — not a brochure.
Ask for the IFU, the lot-traceability packet, and the WPS Government Health Administrators article IDs for the codes you actually bill. If the sales sheet cannot produce those, do not put it in a Grand Rapids fridge. That is how an account with us starts.
