Joe Bradley will tell you the same thing he tells his own staff: epidemiology first, then MAC, then SKU. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 10.7% of adults in Wilmington have diagnosed diabetes — 1.3 points below 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 sports injury biologics against that mix.
National Sports Injury Biologic Treatments notes (how the product actually works)JM reviewers still want serial wound measurements and conservative-care history before CTPs, whether diabetes in Wilmington is 10.7% or not. PLACES is planning data. The LCD is the claim.
If you already buy sports injury biologics elsewhere, use this page as a check: homologous-use language, current Palmetto GBA article IDs, and PLACES 10.7% diabetes as the epidemiologic floor. If that is how you already practice, the catalog will fit.
CDC PLACES (2023, crude prevalence) estimates 10.7% of adults — 1.3 points below the U.S. 12% figure. Obesity is 31.9%; arthritis is 26%. That is place-level BRFSS modeling, not a clinic census and not a Wilmington trial.
It is the Census city-proper count — useful as scale for a city under 250k. It is not a count of orthopedic groups, wound centers, or competitors. Underwrite the program against your referral sources, not against the skyline.
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. Palmetto GBA writes coverage. We train staff on documentation patterns those articles already require (wound measurements, conservative care, units). That is support, not a coverage guarantee.
If you operate in North Carolina and another MAC state, say it on the first call. JM will not port 1:1. We would rather split utilization than watch a sister clinic copy Wilmington tickets into the wrong jurisdiction.
