Medical Wig Insurance

If you require a wig or hair piece for an exisiting medical condition,you may be eligible for reimbursement from your health insurance provider. If you do not have health coverage through an independent insurance provider, you may be eligible to submit your receipts to Internal Revenue Agency, as additional medical expenses.

Coverage and your eligibility will vary greatly by your health insurance provider. In order to find out if you’re eligible for medical prosthetic wig coverage, P&P hair recommends following the following step:

Contact your health insurance company to find out if a medical hair replacement unit or cranial hair prosthesis wig qualifies for reimbursement. 

PLEASE NOTE: It’s important to use the correct terminology. For correct information about medical coverage, ensure you use the words ‘medical cranial prosthetic hair wig’ with your insurance representative.

Once you’ve confirmed you have medical coverage for your Human Hair Cranial Prosthesis, follow these steps, to streamline your insurance reimbursement  claim process:

  1. You will need to obtain a prescription from your doctor. Terminology is very important at this stage. Confirm with your insurance company, exactly what they want your doctor to write on the prescription, so that there is absolutely no discrepancy.
  2. After purchasing your wig, P&P Hair will provide you with a sales receipt for a medical hair prosthesis.
  3. Submit your claim with your prescription AND your sales receipt from P&P Hair
