Bill > SR750

This resolution formally recognizes March 10, 2026, as Georgia Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Day at the state capitol, aiming to honor Georgians living with limb loss and limb difference and their efforts to advocate for better medical policy coverage. The resolution highlights that millions of Americans, including over 200,000 Georgians, face challenges accessing life-changing prosthetic and orthotic devices due to inadequate insurance coverage, despite these devices being crucial for daily living, work, personal hygiene, and physical activity. It emphasizes that such care is medically necessary and vital for individuals to live independently and reach their full potential, and notes that state-provided healthcare coverage for employees and retirees already includes access to appropriate prosthetic and orthotic care.
