Össur’s Dave McGill featured on CNN and BBC

Check out both videos (below) to see what Dave McGill and amputees around the nation are doing to help overturn  the incredibly low cap insurance companies put on prosthetics.

On September 16th, the Amputee Coalition of America and AOPA brought more than 40 amputees and caregivers from around the United States to Capitol Hill to encourage legislators to make sure that any health care reform bill includes appropriate access to prosthetic devices for all amputees.

Our own David McGill, Chairman of the ACA’s Board of Directors, participated in the event, and was interviewed by CNN and BBC as part of a news story highlighting the issue.  Please see the videos below for the story on this important initiative.
