>Can anyone answer (or give their best guess) the following.
1. How many custom foot orthoses are prescribed annually (by country, or globally)?
2. How many "over the counter" orthoses are prescribed annually (by country or globally)?
3. Who / what is the "biggest" commercial enterprise in the business (by country)?
4. Who / what is the longest running commercial enterprise (by country)?
5. On the basis of 1 to 4, how big are we in comparison with optical (spectacles and contact lenses) and dental equivalents?
Are there any medical insurance statistics on the topic?
Regards,
Steve
