What About Costs?

Effective rehabilitation may involve costs in the short term, but starting off with the right device, 

the best possible fit, and the most comfort and function ultimately keep your medical costs down.

The difference between the correct orthosis (brace) or prosthesis (artificial limb) and a cheaper substitute can have enormous impact on the patient.

VIPO is contracted with most major healthcare plans, and happily accepts Medicare, Medi-Cal, and Workers Comp patients. Our staff will work with you and your insurance company to determine your benefits and authorization requirements. Of important note, consultations are provided at no cost to the patient.
