Joe Bradley will tell you the same thing he tells his own staff: epidemiology first, then MAC, then SKU. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 13.9% of adults in Houston have diagnosed diabetes — 1.9 points above the U.S. 12% figure. 24% 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 regenerative medicine for athletes against that mix.
National Regenerative Medicine for Athletic Performance notes (how the product actually works)JH reviewers still want serial wound measurements and conservative-care history before CTPs, whether diabetes in Houston is 13.9% or not. PLACES is planning data. The LCD is the claim.
If you already buy regenerative medicine for athletes elsewhere, use this page as a check: homologous-use language, current Novitas Solutions article IDs, and PLACES 13.9% diabetes as the epidemiologic floor. If that is how you already practice, the catalog will fit.
CDC PLACES (2023, crude prevalence) estimates 13.9% of adults — 1.9 points above the U.S. 12% figure. Obesity is 38%; arthritis is 19.3%. That is place-level BRFSS modeling, not a clinic census and not a Houston trial.
City-proper counts are unambiguous and match the URL slug. MSA figures change with OMB delineations and would be easy to get wrong. We would rather under-claim than invent a metro number.
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 Texas.
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 JH reviewers and surveyors expect — not a brochure.
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 Houston fridge. That is how an account with us starts.
