Frequently Asked Questions About Prosthetic and Orthotic Fitting
CNAM coverage, fabrication timelines, myoelectric versus bionic limbs: answers from our certified prosthetists and orthotists in Sousse and Tunis.
Yes. Cure Care guides patients through the CNAM (Caisse Nationale d'Assurance Maladie) coverage process for eligible prosthetics and orthotics.
A myoelectric prosthesis is controlled by the patient's electrical muscle signals. A bionic prosthesis adds advanced sensors, microprocessors and algorithms for more natural control and extended functionality.
Yes, Cure Care welcomes international patients from Libya, Algeria, and across Africa. We provide end-to-end care including clinical assessment, custom fabrication using certified technology, and ongoing follow-up.
The consultation starts with a clinical assessment by our certified prosthetist or orthotist, followed by measurements or a 3D scan, custom fabrication and fitting sessions until the alignment is right.
Timelines depend on the device. A standard prosthesis can be ready within a few days thanks to our 3D additive manufacturing workflow. Myoelectric or bionic limbs usually take one to three weeks.
We see patients in two centers: Sousse (Novation City, Pépinière Softech A2) and Tunis (Centre Urbain Nord, lot 14 Block B, 8th floor, B8-2), with more locations coming.
