Insurance & Documentation Guide

Prepare before contacting your insurer

Some health plans may provide benefits for a cranial prosthesis when hair loss is connected to a qualifying medical condition. Coverage is never automatic, and requirements vary by plan, employer, state, diagnosis, provider network, and documentation.

Questions to ask your insurer

  • Does my plan include benefits for a cranial prosthesis or hair prosthesis?
  • Which benefit category, billing code, or durable medical equipment provision applies?
  • Is a prescription or letter of medical necessity required?
  • Must the ordering provider or supplier be in network?
  • Is prior authorization required before purchase?
  • What is my deductible, coinsurance, annual limit, or replacement schedule?
  • Which itemized documents are needed for a claim?
  • Where and how should the claim be submitted?

Documents commonly requested

  • Prescription using the terminology required by your plan
  • Medical diagnosis or letter of medical necessity
  • Itemized invoice and proof of payment
  • Supplier information requested by the plan
  • Prior-authorization approval, when required
  • Claim or reimbursement form
