Dear list,
I have a young new transhumeral amputee who is currently wearing a body powered AE with a hook for his terminal device. He is using the prosthesis every day, is doing very well but would like to get a mechanical hand to use. What mechanical hand is the easiest to operate with the lowest cost since Medicare has reduce the Lcodes to one price?
Thanks in advance!
