What Create Prosthetics does

Create Prosthetics Health Inc. is a privately held U.S. medical device company that designs, fabricates, and delivers custom 3D-printed prosthetic devices for amputees and individuals with limb differences. The company serves two primary customer segments: individual wearers reached through direct-to-consumer digital channels, and referring clinicians including prosthetists, physicians, and health systems reached through a clinical referral portal. Its core technology combines additive manufacturing with patient-specific digital modeling, producing devices with structural tolerances measured in fractions of a millimeter and an average 14-day delivery time from design approval to completed device, materially compressing timelines relative to traditional manual fabrication methods that require days of skilled labor and multiple fitting appointments. Material selection spans bio-inspired polymers, carbon fiber, and flexible composites engineered for durability, comfort, and aesthetic range.

The product portfolio centers on custom prosthetic fabrication across upper-limb, lower-limb, partial-hand, and partial-foot applications, with identity-forward design integrated into the structural engineering process rather than added as a cosmetic afterthought. Supporting the core fabrication offering are four digital tools: a Device Configurator for real-time aesthetic customization (color, pattern, texture, finish); a Design Match personality-based quiz that recommends device profiles; an Insurance Navigator questionnaire that assesses coverage and prior-authorization pathways; and a Clinical Referral Portal that delivers clinical quotes within 48 hours and end-to-end fabrication tracking. The company has fabricated 500+ devices to date and reports device adoption rates and daily wear times exceeding published industry averages for conventional prosthetics, though these outcome claims are self-reported and not externally validated.

Create Prosthetics generates revenue primarily through one-time custom device fabrication sales, with secondary revenue from insurance navigation services, clinical referral services, and bespoke engineering for complex anatomical cases. Distribution is hybrid: a self-serve e-commerce-enabled website targets individual consumers, while a referral portal and direct sales serve clinicians and health systems. The company navigates reimbursement across Private/Employer Insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and VA Benefits, and offers self-pay and financing for uninsured or underinsured patients. The legal entity is Create Prosthetics Health Inc., incorporated in Arkansas, headquartered at 15 Matthews St, Goshen, NY, with a registered business address at 40 Plaza Way Ste 8, Mountain Home, AR. The company is HIPAA-compliant and develops devices in accordance with applicable FDA 21 CFR Part 11 medical device regulations. No funding rounds, ownership structure, executive team, or revenue figures have been disclosed in available sources.

Revenue model

1. Custom Prosthetic Device Fabrication: Create Prosthetics generates primary revenue through the design, fabrication, and delivery of custom 3D-printed prosthetic devices. Devices are custom-fabricated to individual specifications including upper limb (arm, hand, finger), lower limb (leg, knee, foot), partial hand, and partial foot prosthetics. Each device combines clinical functionality with personal expression through color, pattern, texture, and form customization.
2. Insurance Navigation Services: The company offers insurance navigation support including coverage verification, prior authorization assistance, clinical documentation support, and appeals/denial navigation. This service helps wearers access insurance-supported pathways for device coverage.
3. Clinical Referral Services: Provides seamless referral portal access for prosthetists, physicians, and health systems, including clinical quote within 48 hours and fabrication tracking. Targets clinicians as long-term partners rather than one-time transactions.
4. Bespoke Engineering for Complex Cases: Custom-quoted engineering solutions for complex anatomical cases, bilateral needs, or multi-device builds. Includes full clinical engineering consultation, custom material and design specification, and dedicated fabrication team assignment.
