Title: Eve, the Self-Balancing Personal Exoskeleton: Is It Right for Your Client?
Speaker(s): Krisopher Ferrara, PT, DPT
Abstract:
Personal exoskeletons have moved from the research lab into real-world home use, and Assistive Technology Professionals are increasingly the ones asked to determine whether this technology fits a given client. Eve, Wandercraft's self-balancing personal exoskeleton, enables individuals with lower-limb paralysis to stand and walk hands-free—without crutches or walkers—expanding what "mobility" can mean for the people ATPs serve every day.
This session is built for the ATP's decision-making lens. We'll walk through the clinical and functional candidacy criteria for Eve, how a personal exoskeleton complements rather than replaces a client's existing mobility ecosystem (including power and manual wheelchairs), and what a trial and evaluation process looks like in practice. We'll also address the questions ATPs most often raise: how Eve is coded and classified (HCPCS K1007), where it fits within device reimbursement pathways, and what documentation supports medical necessity and funding. Attendees will leave with a practical framework for identifying appropriate candidates, setting realistic client expectations, and positioning the technology within a defensible justification.
