Capital Prosthetic and Orthotic Center

What Capital Prosthetic and Orthotic Center does

Capital Prosthetic and Orthotic Center, Inc. is a family-owned, ABC-certified healthcare provider of custom prosthetic and orthotic devices, founded in 1982 and headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. The company operates three physical clinic locations in Columbus, Newark, and Zanesville, serving patients across Central Ohio, with a Mansfield, OH phone line suggesting incremental market reach. Its service mix spans lower and upper extremity prosthetics (including myoelectric hand components), lower and upper extremity orthotics, spinal orthotics, cranial remolding helmets, and diabetic footwear, supplemented by a niche veterinary prosthetics and orthotics line for animals. Care is delivered by ABC-certified and licensed practitioners supported by three in-house fabrication labs, with 24/7 on-call service, free initial consultations, and on-site customization of devices.

The company's most distinctive technical asset is the patented MULTI Brace Series of spinal braces (LSO and TLSO), developed by co-founder David J. Kozersky, CPO, LPO, FAAOP, and granted a government patent. The design enables tri-planar stabilization, conformable sizing, replaceable posterior pieces, and removable washable pads, and holds PDAC approval for Medicare L-codes L0637 and L0650. All MULTI Brace components are sourced and assembled in the United States. The business also maintains BBB accreditation, an ABC board certification, and Medicare/insurance billing capability, which together form the reimbursement backbone of the operation.

The revenue model is service-based and project-based: patients are assessed at no charge, devices are custom-fabricated, fitted, and adjusted, with pricing determined by insurance coverage and device specification. Custom items require a 50% down payment with the balance due at delivery within 60 days; a 3-month warranty applies to standard products and 6-month to in-house fabricated products. The company accepts cash, major credit cards, and CareCredit healthcare financing. Patient acquisition is primarily through physician and therapist referrals, supplemented by the company's website, direct patient outreach, and community reputation built over four decades. The enterprise remains private, family-controlled, and self-funded, with no disclosed institutional investment, acquisitions, or public listing.
