The questions everyone asks — answered honestly.

Q: Is a cranial prosthesis covered by insurance?

Many insurance plans consider cranial prostheses for reimbursement when prescribed by a physician, often referencing HCPCS code A9282, but coverage varies by plan and is decided solely by your insurer. ANIOR Medical includes a complete documentation packet with every prosthesis.

Q: Can I use HSA or FSA funds for a medical wig?

Cranial prostheses for medical hair loss are often eligible HSA and FSA expenses, typically with a prescription or Letter of Medical Necessity. Confirm requirements with your plan administrator before purchasing.

Q: Does an ANIOR Medical consultation cost anything?

No. ANIOR Medical consultations are complimentary, private, and carry no obligation.

Including the ones that are hard to ask out loud.

Getting started

What is a cranial prosthesis?

A cranial prosthesis is the medical term for a wig designed for hair loss from a medical condition or treatment — the term physicians use on prescriptions and insurers use in claims. "Medical wig" means the same thing. Full explanation →

Do I qualify for a medical wig if I don't have cancer?

Yes. Alopecia, thyroid disease, lupus, trichotillomania, medication side effects, and other medical causes of hair loss are all legitimate reasons — medically, emotionally, and for many insurance plans. Find your condition →

When should I get a wig if I'm starting chemo?

Many women choose a piece before treatment begins — it allows matching your current hair and removes one task from a heavy season. But there is no wrong time, and we can move quickly whenever you're ready.

Products & fit

Will it look like a wig?

Our pieces are 100% human hair with HD lace hairlines designed to read as skin. In a private consultation you'll see and touch them before deciding anything — we'd rather show you than promise you.

Can you really match my texture?

Yes — texture matching is one of the eight commitments of The ANIOR Medical Standard™, including 4A–4C coils and curls. ANIOR is a luxury hair house first; texture is our craft, not a checkbox.

What if it doesn't fit or something is wrong?

We operate remake-first: if a piece has a defect, we remake it to standard rather than discounting you into accepting it. Fit adjustments after delivery are part of the service, not a favor.

Insurance & payment

Is a cranial prosthesis covered by insurance?

Many plans consider it with a physician's prescription; some don't; your insurer decides. Every ANIOR prosthesis includes a complete documentation packet (itemized invoice, A9282 code reference, physician letter template, filing checklist). How reimbursement works →

Can I use my HSA or FSA?

Often yes, typically with a prescription or Letter of Medical Necessity — confirm with your plan administrator first, as requirements vary.

Consultations & privacy

Does the consultation cost anything?

No — consultations are complimentary, private, and carry no obligation whatsoever. What to expect →

Will you keep my information private?

Yes. Consultations are one-on-one, your details are never shared or sold, packaging is discreet, and we never use health information for marketing.

Care & aftercare

How long will my piece last?

With proper care, quality human-hair prostheses typically serve well for an extended period of daily wear — your specialist will give you honest, specific expectations for your piece and lifestyle at consultation, plus a written care plan at purchase.

What happens after delivery?

We check in at 48 hours, 2 weeks, and 3 months; you'll have care guides, styling support, and a direct line to your specialist. Lifetime Care is the final step of The ANIOR Method™ — not a marketing phrase.
