FUNDING ASSISTANCE
Financial obligations should not prevent the patient from achieving their goals and living their life. At SOLA Prosthetics, helping people is our passion. Internally, we have created opportunities for patients to receive a prosthesis at a discounted rate (must qualify). We are also committed to offering one Pro Bono prosthesis per quarter. Externally, we have compiled a list of non-profit organizations to help with funding, each having their own qualifications. Our goal is to find a way to ‘yes’.
