Joe Bradley will tell you the same thing he tells his own staff: epidemiology first, then MAC, then SKU. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 15.3% of adults in Baton Rouge have diagnosed diabetes — 3.3 points above the U.S. 12% figure. 9.6% of adults 18–64 here currently lack health insurance (CDC PLACES ACCESS2, 2023). Cash-pay PRP and Medicare CTPs cannot share one consent script. Then we pick pressure ulcer treatment against that mix.
National Pressure Ulcer Treatment Solutions notes (how the product actually works)CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 15.3% of adults in Baton Rouge have diagnosed diabetes — 3.3 points above the U.S. 12% figure. Adult obesity in Baton Rouge is 37.9% (CDC PLACES 2023). That shows up in wound offloading and in joint-preservation volume — not as a slogan. Adult arthritis here is 26.4% (CDC PLACES 2023, crude). That is the joint-pain backdrop for PRP and orthobiologics — not a promise that every arthritic knee is a candidate. Payer geography: JH / Novitas Solutions, sibling states AR, CO, MS, NM, OK, TX. Louisiana Department of Health is the public-health home. We will not mash those grains into a fake “demand score.”

Often yes, which is the point of vendor consolidation. Keep DME delivery tickets and HCT/P lot files separate so a Louisiana audit trail stays clean.
No. Hawk Medical does not distribute products as “stem cell therapy.” HCT/P 361 allografts are regulated under 21 CFR 1271 for homologous use and minimal manipulation. PRP is autologous. Marketing that blurs those lanes is a compliance problem in every state, including Louisiana.
We source from FDA-registered banks. Bank location is not the same as Hawk Medical’s distribution address, and it is not a Baton Rouge clinic. Ask for the bank’s registration and AATB status on the SKU you want.
If you operate in Louisiana and another MAC state, say it on the first call. JH will not port 1:1. We would rather split utilization than watch a sister clinic copy Baton Rouge tickets into the wrong jurisdiction.
