Provided by AGPROSELAND, N.J., May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Milestone Scientific Inc. (NYSE: MLSS), a leading developer of computerized drug delivery instruments, today provided an update on the expansion of its CompuFlo® medical business, highlighting increasing physician utilization, expanding clinical engagement, and continued development of its commercial and reimbursement infrastructure.
Advisor Program Driving Utilization and Real-World Data Generation
Since launching the CompuFlo® Advisor Program in February 2026, the Company has onboarded physician advisors and initiated procedural use across key Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) jurisdictions, including Novitas, First Coast Service Options, and Palmetto, as well as select commercial payers.
The program is currently active in NJ, FL, PA, NY, TN, TX, and GA, with expansion into additional MAC regions underway, including Noridian and NGS.
• Active epidural procedures being performed using CompuFlo®
• Initial cases submitted across Medicare and commercial payers
• Continued onboarding of physician advisors
Milestone is executing a structured roadmap to expand clinical utilization, support real-world data generation, and enhance payer engagement, with a scalable recurring revenue model driven by disposables.
Building the Foundation for Long-Term Growth and Reimbursement Pathway
Milestone continues to expand its national sales footprint through a growing network of sales consultant partners across NJ, NY, PA, FL, TX, WA, CA, OR, and CO, targeting pain clinics, ASCs, and hospitals. In parallel, digital and social media initiatives are increasing inbound interest from medical professionals, supporting advisor recruitment and conversion into direct purchasing accounts, driving both device placement and procedural utilization.
The Company is also collaborating with leading academic institutions, including the University of Texas, University of Kansas, and University of Minnesota, to support clinical validation and training, contributing to broader clinical acceptance as additional data is generated.
These efforts are aligned with Milestone’s focus on advancing the key elements required for long-term commercialization, including expanding physician utilization, increasing geographic coverage across MAC jurisdictions, driving recurring revenue through disposable utilization, and strengthening clinical and commercial infrastructure.
CompuFlo® is currently associated with CPT® Category III code 0777T. Progression to Category I designation is determined by the American Medical Association and typically requires sustained clinical utilization, peer-reviewed evidence, and broad physician adoption. Milestone’s ongoing initiatives—including physician utilization programs, clinical studies, and payer engagement—are intended to support these factors over time; however, there can be no assurance that Category I designation will be achieved.
“The progress we are making reflects the early stages of building a durable clinical and commercial adoption engine,” said Eric Hines, CEO of Milestone Scientific. “We are focused on expanding physician utilization, generating clinical evidence, and engaging with payers—foundational elements for long-term growth. We expect adoption and broader commercialization to build over time as utilization expands and additional clinical experience is accumulated.”
