takes the concept a step furtherand simplifies the 24 foot-typemedical model into six sub classifi-cations known as quads thatgroups together four similar foottypes. Each quad has its own veryspecific foot and gait characteris-tics. These foot types include se-vere pes cavus, mild pes planus,neutral, moderate pes planus, ab-ductovarus forefoot and severeplanovalgus feet. These six quadspecific functional orthoses arebiomehanically tailored to that of atrue custom prescription. To pro-vide superior patient education, aquad-specific information card isincluded with each pair that fea-tures possible clinical symptoms,key foot attributes, gait character-istics and more.The RX Quadrastep system is
easy to learn and can be quicklyapplied in a clinical setting. It alsoeliminates the need for costly andmessy foot impressions. The de-vices can be stocked in-houseready for immediate fitting.Nolaro’s newest innovation is
littleSTEPs, pre-fabricated foot or-thoses specifically designed forkids. They deliver prescriptionbased correction closely matchingthe criteria of traditional UCBLdevices. littleSTEPs provide an af-fordable alternative to custom or-thoses, enabling early interventionand treatment of many muscu-loskeletal conditions common tochildren.

of electronic insurance claimsprocessing and software solu-tions for podiatrists announcesthat Claredi has certified EClaimsOS claim processing service asHIPAA 5010 compliant. ClarediHIPAA 5010 Certification is animportant step in demonstratingZyantus’ ability to conduct healthcare transactions utilizing pend-ing HIPAA 5010 transactionstandards.Beginning January 1st, 2012, a
federal mandate requires healthplans, clearinghouses and healthcare providers to use newtransaction standards when con-duct ing certa in health caretransactions.To help clients cope with the
pressure of meeting the loomingHIPAA 5010 compliance deadline,Zyantus devoted considerabletime, resources and effort to earn-ing this important certification forits EClaims OS service.“This certif ication demon-
strates both our capability toexchange information using thenew standards and our commit-ment to our loyal client base toease the administrative burdenthey face on a daily basis,” stat-ed Zyantus Pres ident AdamSchwindt. “In many cases, thisnew capability will allow our cus-tomers to continue using theircurrent software systems with-out changes or upgrades, savingthem thousands of dollars inhardware, software and trainingcosts.
