Came across this video on insurance company approval of artificial legs for amputees.
Traditional Medicare sets no limit on what they’ll pay for an artificial leg, as long as it’s medically necessary to restore you to the level of activity you had before the amputation. If you were a jogger or runner, you might qualify for a $100,000 model with microprocessor control.
If you have United Healthcare, it’s a different story. (Peg leg if you’re lucky.)
