Orthotics is the field of custom design, fabrication and fitting of braces and supports for treatment of musculoskeletal conditions resulting from illness, injury or congenital anomalies.

Prosthetics is the field of custom design, fabrication and fitting of artificial limbs typically required by those who have suffered the loss of a limb at birth, from vascular disease, diabetes, cancer or trauma.

Hangers revenues are generated from three operating segments: Patient Care which consists of nationwide prosthetic and orthotic coverage, including medical practices and practitioners, and OPNET, the only prosthetics and orthotics managed care network in the country; Distribution which consists of distribution centers consistently delivering orthotic and prosthetic componentry; and Manufacturing which consists of pre and custom fabrication services of advanced orthotic and prosthetic componentry.
