Comprehensive Prosthetics & Orthotics

What Comprehensive Prosthetics & Orthotics does

Comprehensive Prosthetics & Orthotics (CPO) is a private healthcare services company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Peoria, Illinois. The company designs, fabricates, and fits custom prosthetic limbs and orthotic devices for patients across the U.S. Midwest, operating 33 clinical locations spanning Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri. CPO describes itself as among the largest O&P service providers in the United States and serves four primary patient populations: limb loss/amputation patients, orthopedic and neurological patients, pediatric patients, and post-mastectomy patients, with a referral-driven, physician-prescribed service model that requires physician authorization and operates in-network with most major insurance providers including Medicare and Medicaid.

CPO's technology portfolio centers on custom device fabrication rather than software platforms, including the proprietary Gomez Orthotic Spine System (CPO-GOSS), a CAD-based scoliosis bracing methodology that performs three-plane spinal evaluation for customized brace design; microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees and feet sourced from component vendors; silicone limb restoration techniques replicating fine anatomical detail for cosmetic prosthetics; and a pediatric service line featuring cranial remolding helmets and transitional prosthetics designed to accommodate child growth with regular fitment updates every 6-24 months.

CPO generates revenue through one-time device sales and fitting fees, professional clinical services (evaluations, rehabilitation, follow-up care), and recurring consumables and device maintenance. Pricing is highly individualized based on device complexity, materials, and component technology level, with most revenue flowing through third-party payor reimbursement. In 2015, CPO raised $10 million in growth equity from InvAscent to support its multi-state expansion, and the company is managed under the Simplr Management Services administrative entity.

Direct peers

• Hanger Inc. (Hanger Clinic): Hanger is the largest U.S. orthotics and prosthetics services provider, operating ~875 patient care clinics nationwide. It directly competes with CPO across prosthetics, orthotics, and pediatrics, and is the primary national incumbent CPO would benchmark against for scale, payer contracts, and clinical programs.
• Ability Prosthetics & Orthotics: Ability is a regional U.S. O&P provider offering custom prosthetic and orthotic services across multiple states with certified clinicians. It is closely comparable to CPO in service mix, clinical certification depth, and physician-referral GTM.
• Boston Orthotics & Prosthetics: Boston O&P is a clinical services provider specializing in pediatric orthotics (scoliosis, cranial, custom bracing) with clinics across the U.S. It is directly comparable to CPO's pediatric service line, particularly for cranial remolding and scoliosis bracing.

Broad incumbents

• Ottobock: Ottobock is a global leader in prosthetic components (microprocessor knees, feet, myoelectric hands) and operates patient care clinics in the U.S. Comparable to CPO because CPO fits Ottobock-manufactured components; also competes at the clinic level in select markets.
• Össur: Össur is a global prosthetics manufacturer (Rheo, Proprio, Power Knee) and orthotics provider with U.S. clinical operations. Comparable to CPO as both a component supplier whose products CPO fits and as a competing clinical services player in certain segments.
• Breg: Breg designs, manufactures, and distributes orthopedic bracing and cold therapy products, with broad DME and orthotics offerings. Comparable to CPO's orthotics line where CPO fits bracing products; Breg also distributes through DME channels that overlap with CPO's clinical supply chain.
• Enovis (DJO Global): Enovis (formerly DJO) is a large medical device company with orthopedic braces, recovery, and reconstructive implant franchises. Comparable as a broad incumbent across orthotics, bracing, and rehabilitation products that overlap with CPO's clinical offerings.

Others

• Fillauer: Fillauer manufactures prosthetic and orthotic components and is a key U.S. supplier whose products CPO and other O&P clinics fit daily. It is comparable as an ecosystem participant and component supplier to CPO's clinical service delivery.
• WillowWood Global LLC: WillowWood manufactures prosthetic liners, sockets, and components used across the O&P industry. It is an ecosystem peer whose products CPO integrates into custom prosthetic fittings for upper and lower extremity patients.

Regional players

• Shriners Hospitals for Children: Shriners operates specialty pediatric orthopedic hospitals with integrated orthotics and prosthetics services across the U.S. It is comparable to CPO's pediatric orthotics/prosthetics work as a non-profit alternative; geographic overlap is partial since Shriners is specialty-hospital based.
