Inside CNC®

From Individual Design to Custom Cranial Prosthesis

Prescription & Insurance Benefit Verification

For patients experiencing medically related hair loss, a prescribed cranial prosthesis may qualify for insurance benefits depending on their individual health plan, medical documentation and coverage requirements. Our team can help patients explore their potential benefits.

When a cranial prosthesis has been prescribed by a physician for medically related hair loss, we check the patient’s insurance benefits at no cost. Coverage depends on each individual policy, and reimbursement cannot be guaranteed.
