Insurance Coverage
Insurance Coverage for Medical Wigs (Cranial Prosthesis)
At EOP Beauty, we understand the emotional and financial challenges that come with hair loss due to medical conditions. That’s why we’re committed to helping our clients access insurance-covered medical wigs, also known as cranial prostheses.
What is a Cranial Prosthesis?
A cranial prosthesis is a medical-grade wig designed for individuals who have lost their hairdue to a health condition or medical treatment, such as:
● Chemotherapy
● Alopecia
● Lupus
● Severe burns
● Radiation or other autoimmune disorders
Because cranial prostheses are medically necessary for many individuals, most private insurance companies may cover part or all of the cost, but the process requires proper documentation.
How to Get a Prescription
To qualify for insurance reimbursement, you’ll need a prescription from your doctor. Here'show:
1. Schedule a visit with your licensed healthcare provider (dermatologist, oncologist, or primary care physician).
2. Ask for a written prescription using one of the following terms:
○ Cranial Prosthesis
○ Hair Prosthesis
○ Cranial Hair Prosthesis
3. The prescription should also include a diagnosis code (such as alopecia areata, chemotherapy-induced alopecia, etc.).
Avoid using the word “wig” in the prescription—insurance companies may consider it cosmetic and deny coverage.
Documents You Will Need
To submit your insurance claim, gather the following:
✔A prescription from your doctor (with medical necessity and diagnosis code)
✔A paid-in-full invoice from EOP Beauty
✔A completed CMS-1500 Claim Form (we can help you with this)
✔Insurance-specific codes:
● Synthetic Wig: A9282 or 99199
● Human Hair Wig: L8499
We recommend contacting your insurance provider first to ask:
● If cranial prostheses are covered under your plan
● How much reimbursement are you eligible for
● If a pre-authorization is required
