Amputees Fight Proposed Changes to Prosthetics Coverage

Wall Street Journal | September 21, 2015

Nathan Simm, who was born without a fibula, can bike, swim and play soccer with the help of his prosthetic leg. But a Medicare proposal that could influence other insurance providers seeks to limit coverage of lower-limb prosthetics.

I make politics & policy videos at Vox.com. I used to make political docs at The Wall Street Journal.

I report, write, shoot, produce, animate and edit video stories. I also teach multimedia journalism at American University and the University of Maryland.

Before Vox & WSJ, I was a senior video producer at POLITICO. While in school, I interned at the Washington Post as a video journalist, Capital News Service as a political reporter, United Press International as a still photographer and ABC News as a field producer.

I have an undergraduate degree in photojournalism from the Corcoran College of Art and a Masters degree from the University of Maryland in multi-platform journalism.

When I’m not shooting or rendering I can be found homebrewing, cycling or cheering on my Nationals in the cheap seats.
