BOSTON / Feb 06, 2023 / Business Wire / Myomo, Inc. (NYSE American: MYO) ("Myomo" or the "Company"), a wearable medical robotics company that offers increased functionality for those suffering from neurological disorders and upper-limb paralysis, announced that for the first time, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia approved a MyoPro for a patient with a paralyzed arm. The NDIS aids over 500,000 Australians with disabilities through reimbursement for necessary services and support.

The first MyoPro user to benefit from NDIS reimbursement is a client identified as Natalee W. Four years ago, at the age of 16, Natalee suffered a brain aneurysm and a stroke which resulted in left-side hemiparesis. The NDIS funded a two-month trial of a custom-fabricated MyoPro, which allowed Natalee to learn to use the device. Through consistent use of the MyoPro, Natalee can now perform functional activities of daily living, which she struggled with prior to using the device. Priya Armstrong, Senior Orthotist with NeuroMuscular Orthotics, stated, "For clients such as Natalee, that have been undergoing long-term rehabilitation with minimal functional improvements in their arm and hand, the MyoPro provides a sophisticated orthotic solution that enables the user to self-perform ADL tasks."

The patented MyoPro technology was developed by Myomo in collaboration with researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Medical School. "I am so happy to have been funded for a MyoPro by NDIS," said Natalee. "I have worked so hard to regain as much function in my arm and hand, and the MyoPro has allowed me to do more than I ever imagined. I look forward to using it to increase my independence so that I don't have to rely as much on my family." John Frijters, Managing Director of International Operations for Myomo, stated, “We are pleased to see this insurance approval in Australia, which can lead to greater market access to the MyoPro for others with similar impairment and goals for independent living.”
