Most Insurors Do
My insurance pays for bras, and also breast prosthesis after mastectomy. Your insurance may require that your primary care doctor write a "prescription." Just call your insurance company and ask. There may be a specific amount that the insurance will allow per bra, as well as the number of bras per year.
Good luck,and if your insuror doesn't cover bras, you might check with the ACS. Their website shop has very affordable choices.0 -

Mine had some brand new ones that had been donated for FREE as well as some prosthesis to go with them. My insurance would have paid a portion, but since I had no clue what I was doing I took the help at the ACS and am glad I did. The people who work there are so sweet and helpful! Good luck.0
