Adult arthritis here is 18.8% (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 Providence warehouse or a five-star local review. What you get is pressure ulcer treatment 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 JK, not marketing adjectives.
CDC PLACES (2023, crude prevalence) estimates 11.5% of adults — 0.5 points below the U.S. 12% figure. Obesity is 34.4%; arthritis is 18.8%. That is place-level BRFSS modeling, not a clinic census and not a Providence trial.
Rhode Island is not in CDC’s core Diabetes Belt list, but 12% national prevalence still means diabetic wounds will appear. Stock from your clinic mix, not from belt branding.
Rhode Island is JK. A sister clinic in another state may be a different contractor with different CTP articles. Do not assume one utilization policy ports. We map both if you operate across MACs.

If you operate in Rhode Island and another MAC state, say it on the first call. JK will not port 1:1. We would rather split utilization than watch a sister clinic copy Providence tickets into the wrong jurisdiction.
