Does anyone know if health insurance generally helps with the cost of orthotics?

Thanks,

Vannie,

I would suspect it depends on what kind of insurance you have. You can usually call your insurance carrier and ask them what is covered by you policy.

Not much help I know...........wish I had a better answer.

Kindly,
