Joe Bradley will tell you the same thing he tells his own staff: epidemiology first, then MAC, then SKU. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 11.7% of adults in Joliet have diagnosed diabetes — 0.3 points below the U.S. 12% figure. 13.9% 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)America’s Health Rankings (BRFSS 2024) only publishes state diabetes as a range nationally (Colorado 8.4% to West Virginia 18.4%). For Joliet we use CDC PLACES instead of interpolating a fake city rate from that range. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 11.7% of adults in Joliet have diagnosed diabetes — 0.3 points below the U.S. 12% figure.

No. Hematogel is a PRP-based wound gel pathway with its own application and documentation. Skin substitutes/CTPs follow National Government Services (NGS) CTP articles. Mixing those codes is a billing error.
No. PRP (autologous) and cellular/tissue products (allograft/skin substitutes) sit on different coding and coverage paths. National Government Services (NGS) LCDs for CTPs do not automatically cover PRP injections. Build separate protocols and fee tickets.
