Many pedorthists have relied mainly on insurance reimbursements to drive their practices. A physician writes a prescription for whatever he or she deems medically necessary to meet a patient’s needs and sends the patient to the pedorthist to have the prescription filled. Most of the time the individual has insurance to help cover some or all of the cost of the services. The pedorthist files the proper paperwork and receives compensation for the work. It is a time-tested model that has served countless pedorthists well for many years.
