At HPT the cost of the orthotic is not billed to insurance. The cost for fitting and assessing foot structure to determine the proper orthotic can be billed to insurance. We have stopped billing insurance for the actual cost of the orthotic because the insurance companies would not cover them in full and we were losing money on the transaction. If you have questions you can ask our billing department for a further explanation.
Pre-fabricated orthotics are to be paid for on the day that you receive them. They range in cost $25-$50 per pair. These are not billable to insurance.
You will be charged an evaluation + a fitting fee on the day that you receive your orthotics. These charges are billable to insurance. However, you will be responsible for deductible, co-pay, and/or co-insurance amounts as determined by your insurance company.
The price for custom orthotics is $175/pair for children’s sizes and $200/pair for adult sizes.
Custom orthotics require a deposit of $100 on the day that they are casted. They will not be ordered without the deposit. You are responsible for paying the balance due on the day that you pick them up. You may, of course, pay the price in full the day that you are casted.
You will be charged an evaluation ($120) + a fitting fee ($80) on the day that custom orthotics are casted, as well as a fitting fee ($80) on the day that you pick them up. These charges are billable to insurance. However, you will be responsible for deductible, co-pay, and/or co-insurance amounts as determined by your insurance company.
Many insurance companies do not pay for custom orthotics and in that case the patient will be expected to pay in full for the price of the orthotics.
Custom orthotics are not billable to Medicaid. If you have Medicaid, or do not have insurance at all, you will be charged a flat-fee of $100 for the evaluation, casting and follow-up fitting, in addition to the price of the orthotics. The $100 fee + $100 deposit are due on the day that the orthotics are cast.
