Does Insurance Pay for Prosthetic Legs?

[@TheLegLady]

???? QUESTION OF THE DAY???? What is coverage like where you are at? How assessable are prosthetics or other medical care?

Thank you so much. This video was very informative. We appreciate you. I was denying my prosthetic by Medicare because of an oversight and the description. Evidently Medicaid got the word that I needed a exoskeletal pylon style when that was not the case my prosthesis was designated the airlock section type I appealed in and now waiting sitting on the couch with one leg anticipating going back to work I didn’t see this coming. It’s terrible.

I live in st.lucia as I have stated before but cannot afford any kind of insurance companies

[@ziltafelicien289]

also they are not able to care and facilitate all of the things needed for prosthetic limbs

@@ziltafelicien289 Yes, I wish there were better access/resources available. Hopefully things have improved with your daughters' pain/discomfort!

Does anyone work/live in a state that Medicaid does cover prosthetic care in a skilled nursing facility?
