Further, since again, you probably didn't read the article, insurance companies haven't even footed the bill for these surgeries as they're considered elective.
Meantime, if you and the OP want to discuss in a civil manner, we can keep going. If not, then whatever happens, happens.

I didn't notice a thread about inmate X who had his appendix removed in prison, or Inmate Y who was stitched up after being shanked in the shower, or Inmate Z who had to have facial reconstruction done when he was beaten so badly his face caved in. If your concern is about the taxpayers footing the bill for all medical procedures for inmates, I totally understand, and agree with you. If someone outside of prison would have to pay for it, why wouldn't an inmate?
However, since I didn't see any threads like that, I am guessing the reasoning isn't quite the same as mine is.
