Full Cranial Prosthesis for Women Experiencing Hair Loss

We can now provide full cranial prosthesis (full lace wigs) for women suffering from long term or permanent hair loss due to a medical condition such as chemotherapy, alopecia, Trichotillomania, or other medical conditions.

As you could see from our "Choosing the Right Unit "page, natural hair prostheses are specifically designed to meet the needs of any women suffering from hair loss. Our wigs are form-fitted to become part of you and designed to be styled as if it were your own hair. Our cranial umits are made with 100% Indian Remy Human Hair and can be parted anywhere throughout the unit and give you that natural scalp appearance.

Getting Your Health Insurance to Cover the Cost of Your Unit:

Note: We are not a Medical or Health Provider. We DO NOT process medical claims, nor do we accept prescriptions.

When you loss your hair due to medical reasons such as chemotherapy, alopecia, Trichotillomania, or other medical conditions, when requesting a prescription from your physician, the full lace wig should then be referred to as a "full cranial prosthesis" which will then enable it to be covered under most medical insurance policies. Most insurance companies will cover between 80-100% cost for your full cranial prosthesis. However, if you request coverage for a wig, chances are your claim will be denied. Therefore it is imperative that you specifically request coverage for a "full cranial prosthesis".

If you require a cranial prosthesis due to permanent hair loss or hair loss during chemotherapy or alopecia treatment, you may be eligible to receive full or partial coverage to purchase the full cranial prosthesis by your health insurance company. To see what the procedure is to obtain full or particial coverage for the full cranial prosthesis,you should contact your insurance company directly.

Your hair prosthesis may also be a tax deductible medical expense.

Steps to Follow:

Call Your Health Insurance Provider and check the coverage on your policy to see if it covers a "full cranial prosthesis" for medical hair loss.

If it is covered, ask them to explain their procedure for obtaining payment for the full cranial prosthesis

IMPORTANT: We DO NOT process insurance claims nor accept prescriptions.

Some insurance companies will require you to pay upfront and then be reimbursed, while others will pay for your prosthesis upfront.

Select the Wigs listed under Full Cranial Prosthesis to ensure that your invoice will read correctly.

If your insurance company reimburses you for the prosthesis, then you can select a payment method during checkout.

Complete any other insurance forms and be sure they are signed by your physician

Request your physician to write a prescription for a "full cranial prosthesis" not a wig

Ask your physician to also write a letter explaining hair loss and its effects and have him state that it is not simply for cosmetic reasons but for emotional well being as well

Keep copies of all of your documentation and invoices for tax exempt purposes

Follow the instructions that you were given by your health insurance provider to submit the prescription so that you can obtain payment.

The above steps are for your reference. We wish you luck in obtaining insurance coverage for your unit.
