General Questions

Will my insurance cover care from Cornell O&P?

While Cornell O&P has contracts with most insurance payers, coverage limits, especially for prosthetic care, can vary. Medicare, Medicaid, and GIC plans usually offer adequate coverage, but private insurance from employers may have limitations. Our staff will verify your coverage before services are rendered.

Does Cornell O&P take my particular insurance?

Cornell O&P is a provider for many insurance carriers. See our list of insurance carriers for more information.

What if I do not live near Danvers, Beverly, but want to be seen by Cornell Orthotics & Prosthetics. Will you come to my home?

While it's challenging to provide O&P services at home, we see patients at numerous clinics around the state. Check our list of clinics for locations.

Will I see the same COP practitioner each time I visit the office? Will anyone come to the hospital?

Yes, whenever possible. We prioritize continuity of care and make efforts to have you see the same prosthetist or orthotist practitioner. We routinely see patients in the hospital, collaborating with hospital staff to coordinate care.

Can I be seen for an evaluation or follow-up without a prescription?

Yes, in most cases. If a prescription is needed, we will send a letter to your physician describing what is needed.
