Hi Tony
The following is a quote to a major newspaper from ACA counsel
Doug McCormack, counsel to the Amputee Coalition of America, said that as
frustrating as the change is to Kaiser members, the situation is far worse
for many other amputees in other parts of the country. It (coverage of
prostheses) is a huge problem nationwide. If Kaiser is paying 80 percent --
and I'm not looking to defend them -- they're more generous than many
managed care organizations that don't provide any benefit or that institute
lifetime or short-term caps, he said.
This copay is only for handicap persons not all of medical care that is
discrimination, some how this lawyer miss this.
