Veterans with limb loss would get specialized prosthetics for sports and recreation.
This bill would ensure eligible veterans with limb loss can get specialized prosthetics for sports and recreation through their VA medical services. Currently, these specialized devices are not explicitly covered. This change would help veterans stay active and improve their quality of life.
Today, VA medical services cover "artificial limbs" but do not explicitly include adaptive prosthetics for sports and recreation. If this bill becomes law, the VA would specifically cover these specialized devices for eligible veterans, making them part of their standard medical benefits.
