The ABC and the BOC have agreed in Federal court how certified practitioners are to refer to themselves. ABC has the rights to the designations CO, CP, CPO Certified Prosthetist, Certified Orthotist, Certified Prosthetist/Orthotist, etc.
BOC Practitioners use the designations BOCO, BOCP, BOCPO or BOC Prosthetist, etc.
You can file a complaint in writing by submitting evidence of the unauthorized use of ABC designations to:
American Board for Certification

There is a BOC business owner / orthotist in my area that is signing his
name in the hospital progress notes as a CP. Does the BOC organization
have any ethics about this fraudulent practice? Does ABC care about it?
If either does who do I contact because I will rat him out.
