Where can I get a prescription?

Many people are entitled to financial support to purchase a wig or hairline as part of medical treatment. In order for him to be able to assert this, however, he needs a corresponding prescription.

Such can be from:

  • oncologists
  • dermatologists
  • gynecologists
  • internal medicine doctors
  • general practitioners

to be issued.

What may be just a piece of paper in the form of a prescription for some people is a key to a better quality of life for those affected.

This is why it is so important that doctors educate their patients about their rights and options when it comes to buying a wig or hairline.

When can a wig/hairline be prescribed?

There are several treatments that doctors can use to prescribe a wig or hairline.

These are:

  • chemotherapy
  • irradiation
  • circular hair loss
  • hereditary or age-related hair loss.

If there are corresponding findings, it is irrelevant whether the patient is a child or an adult.

How much do the health insurance companies pay for the wig/hairline?

The basic rule is: no health insurance company will cover the entire cost of a wig or hairline. The amount of financial support depends on the diagnosis.

It is therefore all the more important that this is noted on the recipe as precisely as possible. The document should therefore always state whether the hair loss is permanent or foreseeable over time.

Furthermore, different specifications and support models apply with regard to synthetic and human hair and in connection with wigs for children and adults.

In order for patients to be able to obtain detailed information about their rights, it is important to always deal with the services of the respective health insurance company.
