📝 How to Get Reimbursed (5 Simple Steps)

1

Check Your Coverage

Call your insurance company and ask: "Does my plan cover cranial prostheses for chemotherapy-related hair loss?" Note the coverage amount and any requirements.

2

Get a Prescription

Ask your oncologist or doctor for a prescription. Important: Request they use the term "cranial prosthesis" instead of "wig" - this medical terminology often results in better coverage.

3

Purchase Your Wig

Order your medical-grade wig from VexoraWigs. You'll pay the full amount upfront and get reimbursed by your insurance later.

4

Request Documentation

Email us at hey@vexorawigs.com with subject "Insurance Documentation Request". We'll send you all necessary documents within 24 hours.

5

Submit Your Claim

Send the prescription, our documentation, and your insurance claim form to your insurance company. Most reimbursements are processed within 2-6 weeks.

💡 Pro Tips for Maximum Reimbursement

  • Use "Cranial Prosthesis" - This medical term is more likely to be covered than "wig"
  • Get Pre-Authorization - Some plans require approval before purchase
  • Keep Copies - Make copies of all documents before submitting
  • Follow Up - Call your insurance after 2 weeks to check claim status
  • Appeal if Denied - Many denials are overturned on appeal with proper documentation

📄 Sample Doctor's Letter

You can share this template with your doctor:

To Whom It May Concern,

This letter is to certify that [Patient Name] requires a cranial prosthesis (medical wig) due to hair loss resulting from chemotherapy treatment for [diagnosis].

The cranial prosthesis is medically necessary to help the patient maintain normal appearance and psychological well-being during cancer treatment. Hair loss from chemotherapy can cause significant emotional distress, and a cranial prosthesis is an important part of the patient's overall treatment and recovery.

I recommend a high-quality, medical-grade cranial prosthesis for this patient.

Sincerely,

[Doctor's Name, MD]
