Fw: International O&P License Requirement Poll

Tony Barr

Thanks Jason for your reply and participation in our poll. I'll forward your question on to professional members of the listserve .
I am of the belief that there are no requirements to label yourself a Clinical Prosthetist in most states of the U. S. or to recieve reimbursement from government medicare providers. What sort of qualifications are practitioners required to have for Govt. funded work in New Zealand ?Tony

----------
New Zealand

No Govt. License is required to work in N.Z.

Qualifications are required of any who wish to partake of non private work.
i.e. Govt. funded or Accident Compenstation work.

I am a graduate of The LaTrobe University School of Prosthetics and
Orthotics in Melbourne, Australia (3 Year Bachelor Degree + .5 year clinical
placement)what would be required of me to work as a Clinical Prosthetist in
the U.S.?
