Over the past two years, the prosthetics system in Ukraine has not been functioning well. In particular, most veterans with severe amputations have to raise additional funds from 150-300 thousand hryvnias for high-quality prostheses. If a wounded person was initially fitted with a prosthesis a year ago, the Ministry of Social Policy deprived them of the right to receive a modern prosthesis with lightweight electronic joints. Amputated limbs change in size and people need a new stump socket, but this procedure is bureaucratically complicated.
