How often should prothesis be replaced? How often does insurance cover?
Hit enter too soon again.
The prostheses were a little difficult to get in because the openings were so small, but I just snipped it a little bigger and it worked just fine. These three bras were only $16.00.
It varies by carrier and policy. One thing I was told though is a weight change of 10 pounds either way might warrant getting fitted for new bras and insurance might not cover them. I found some sports bras on nomorerack.com that has littke pads in them. I took their pads out and put my prostheses in and they fit so much better than the mastectomy bras. The prostheses were a little difficult
It depends on the insurance policy. There is huge variation as to how much and how often it's covered.
I don't know how often insurance replaces prosthesis . All I was told is that at least with my insurance they will only cover prosthesis or reconstruction but not both,
