What is a Cranial Prosthesis Specialist? +

A Cranial Prosthesis Specialist is a certified professional who provides medical grade wigs (cranial prostheses) to clients who experience hair loss due to medical conditions such as cancer, alopecia, and other medical diagnoses.

Yes! Depending on the insurance plan, a cranial prosthesis can be covered up to 100%. Coverage varies based on the patient's medical diagnosis and insurance plan type. Our certification course teaches you exactly how to verify coverage, collect prescriptions, file insurance claims, handle denials, and appeal decisions — so you collect the maximum reimbursement for your clients.

The course is completely self-paced with lifetime access. Many students complete it in a few days, while others take a few weeks. There's no deadline — you can move as fast or as slow as you like, and revisit any module at any time.
