Frequently Asked Questions

 

Do I need to make an appointment?
The Boutique accepts walk-ins from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday for surgical, compression and mastectomy products and fittings. Katie's Corner Wig Studio is by appointment only.

Will my insurance pay for my post-mastectomy needs?
By law, insurance companies must allow you a breast form following surgery. Most insurance companies will cover compression with a lymphedema diagnosis and proper documentation. For wig services, you will be provided a detailed receipt to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. All benefits will be discussed with you at the time of service so that you are comfortable with what you are purchasing.

What do I need to bring to my visit?
You will need your insurance cards if you'd like items billed to your carrier. You will also need a current prescription for products.
