&gt;To people in the amputee community, the coverage disparity amounts to discrimination.<p>True. Also most people with this issue probably served in Bush II wars. The Military should pay for these and continue to pay.<p>For others, we will need an add on to ACA, there is no reason people in an economically advanced country should suffer like this.<p>But sad to say, this will continue for at least the next 4 years and coverage will probably decrease during this time, especially for the poor.
