How are the fees for orthotic devices determined?
Fees are established by Alberta Aids to Daily Living in consultation with Certified Orthotists. The Fee Schedule is based on a pricing model including the cost of materials, components and the clinical and technical time for each procedure. The Fee Schedule ensures consistent pricing of services for all service providers throughout the Province of Alberta regardless of whether those services are delivered through a publicly funded institution like a hospital or, more commonly, through a private practice.
