Adult arthritis here is 20.4% (CDC PLACES 2023, crude). That is the joint-pain backdrop for PRP and orthobiologics — not a promise that every arthritic knee is a candidate. Keep 361 tissue, autologous PRP, and skin substitutes on different tickets. We onboard against that split — then ship.

Yes — receiving, storage, indication, and documentation templates are part of onboarding. SOPs still have to be adopted as the clinic’s own procedures; we do not pretend to be the medical director in Visalia.
Regulatory lane, storage, and JE coding. Amniotic products used as 361 HCT/Ps are not “better gauze.” Match wound stage and coverage article before you convert the cart.
Ask for the IFU, the lot-traceability packet, and the Noridian Healthcare Solutions article IDs for the codes you actually bill. If the sales sheet cannot produce those, do not put it in a Visalia fridge. That is how an account with us starts.
