Published in VGM HME Community on March 13, 2025

As home medical equipment providers, you know many of your patients will need bracing at some point. The global orthotics market is projected to reach $8.82 billion by 2032, driven by an aging population and rising osteoarthritis cases. It’s highly likely the population you are serving has or will have a need for orthotics at some point in time. 

The Benefits of Offering OTS Orthotics 

Off-the-shelf (OTS) orthotics are prefabricated and require minimal fitting, eliminating the need to hire additional professional staff. With minimal financial investment or risk, OTS orthotics enables you to accept more referrals, boost incremental sales, and enhance patient care. Patients, payers, and caregivers need a knowledgeable partner who fully understands the orthotics market, making you an even more essential part of the patient care continuum.

You don’t need any additional professional staff, and you can leverage existing relationships to get into the OTS orthotics market. Our OTS Orthotics Guide provides a comprehensive overview to help you determine if this is the right move for your business. It also offers a clear, step-by-step walk-through of everything you need to get started.
