    Why is it that MCP does not cover the cost of prosthetics? Even with private insurance, for those who have it, the net cost is huge. How is this reflective of universal health care?

    MCP cannot pay for everything. If prostheticss are covered, then why not diabetes or cancer meds and the list goes on. Be thankful for what it does cover.
