Your body isn’t a size.
It’s a blueprint.

Fit starts with phenotype.

Defensible lower extremity bracing,
designed from anatomy and clinical need.

The mign Foot & Ankle Phenotype Chart

For patients and caregivers.

Every body has a pattern.
We design from yours.

Your body is a shape, a frame, and a way of standing in the world.

The mign Foot & Ankle Phenotype Chart™ translates real-world anatomy into digital design inputs: Shape, Frame, Height, and Indication, so each brace is built from how your body actually moves, not from a sizing chart.

For Clinicians & Healthcare Partners

Clinical Precision. Documented Confidence. Reimbursable Design.

The patented mign Foot & Ankle Phenotype Chart transforms patient morphology into standardized, defensible documentation.

Quantifying shape, frame, height, and indication provides an objective basis for selecting, designing, and justifying lower-extremity bracing.

Integrated into your digital workflow, the phenotype classification aligns directly with CMS definitions and brace selection qualifying criteria, streamlining clinical documentation and coding.

Each patient’s charted phenotype informs:

  • Design parameters matched to ICON, BOSS, or STAR brace tiers

  • Embedded macro templates for L-code justification and physician documentation

  • Digital traceability from intake to order to claim submission

  • Consistent audit-ready language supporting compliance and payer confidence

This system reduces administrative burden, eliminates guesswork, and ensures every patient receives an orthosis designed and documented for their specific needs.
