LETTER TO THE EDITOR REGARDING: EVOLVING BUSINESS MODELS IN ORTHOTICS

Abstract

The purpose of this letter is to initiate a constructive dialogue, clarify some of the information provided in the CPOJ recent article, “Evolving business models in orthotics” and to highlight our concerns with respect to important context about the orthotic and prosthetic profession in Canada that we feel was missing from the publication (Schneider N. Evolving business models in orthotics. Canadian prosthetics & orthotics journal. 2021; Volume 4, Issue 2, No.3. https://doi.org/10.33137/cpoj.v4i2.35876).
