Dear List-serve,
Does anyone know if insurance companies cover a MCP (or any prosthesis for that matter) in the event of a catastrophic loss like a fire at home? Is the prosthesis considered content? What category do insurance companies considered expensive prostheses? What riders should a patient ask for? How expensive if there is such a beast?
Thanks for your help,
Rick Stapleton, CPO
