Partner With Humotech
If you’re interested in offering prosthetic trialing, we’d love to connect.
Clinical Expertise, Enhanced with Data
Humotech partners with clinicians--including prosthetists and other rehabilitation care providers--to offer a prosthetic trialing service that supports shared decision-making, drives patient engagement, and enables evidence-based care.
Our role is to support clinical expertise with experiential data. With our innovative service-based business model, we provide you with the results you need to make data-driven decisions quickly and effectively.
Finally, an easy way to meaningfully incorporate outcome measures into decision-making around one of the most critical components in a lower limb prosthesis: the foot. And we’re just getting started!
Choosing a prosthetic foot involves many factors, including patient preference, comfort, confidence, function, mobility, balance, coding, cost, and coverage. There are hundreds of foot options, and not enough time in the day.
The prosthetic trialing service helps clinics by:
- Providing patients with the opportunity to compare different prosthetic options and express what works best for them, driving patient engagement
- Supporting clearer conversations between patients and prosthetists by grounding them in experience rather than expectations, i.e. shared decision making
- Providing quantitative outcomes data to perform structured comparisons with, augmenting clinical judgement
- Increasing confidence that the foot selected provides the right functionality at the right pricepoint
- Reducing bias in prosthetic foot selection by shifting the focus from branding and descriptions of features & benefits to the observation of how foot choice impacts mobility and satisfaction
- Improving documentation to support medical necessity and reduce audit risk
- Providing a way to implement evidence-based care with a simple turnkey solution that prepares your practice for value-based reimbursement models of the future
- Reducing burden on the clinic associated with traditional trialing methodologies, and reducing reliance on key personnel who are overloaded with decision-making fatigue
Clinics partner with Humotech to integrate prosthetic trialing into patient care, and we strive to make it as easy as possible.
The service is designed to fit within existing clinical workflows while also helping to realize new approaches to clinical decision-making and payment such as value-based care.
Our engagement model includes:
- Scheduling trialing visits for patients
- Coordinating with prosthetists and care teams
- Performing foot trials at Humotech’s headquarters in Harmar, PA or at a Humotech-owned mobile clinic—we're launching across PA in 2026 and would love to hear from you if you are from a different region
- Reviewing trialing experiences and outcomes together
- Documenting results to be easily interpreted by payors.
We will work with you collaboratively to ensure the service fits your unique needs and processes.

What the Experts Are Saying
Hear it from the dedicated healthcare professionals who have guided us in creating a decision aid that works for all.
"I see the Caplex® system as the future in the evolving prosthetics industry. It is a way to expedite fitting the appropriate foot to a given patient supported by experiential data."
“I believe this patient-centric technology will create a more efficient and appropriate prosthetic foot selection process for both the patient and the prosthetist. Patients will spend less time in the clinic while being matched with the most biomechanically suitable foot. Meanwhile, practitioners will no longer have to juggle ordering and returning multiple feet from manufacturers. I also believe this technology will provide strong medical justification when obtaining a new foot for a patient transitioning from their preparatory prosthesis to their definitive one.”
"Selecting the best prosthetics has long been a guessing game—but the Caplex® System changes that. Real-time physical emulation empowers patients to trial different foot options and inform the prosthetist of their preferences. This is what makes the Caplex® solution a true game changer!"
