Helping Make Cold Cap Therapy More Accessible

At Wishcaps, we believe every patient deserves the opportunity to explore options for preserving their hair during chemotherapy, regardless of their financial circumstances.

We understand that a cancer diagnosis can bring unexpected financial challenges, including medical expenses, reduced income, and changes in employment.

As part of our commitment to making cold cap therapy more accessible, Wishcaps offers a limited Patient Financial Assistance Program for individuals who may have difficulty affording the cost of their cold cap kit lease.

Our goal is simple: Help more patients access cold cap therapy when they need it most.

Who May Qualify?

Financial assistance may be available to patients experiencing financial hardship, including those who:

  • Live on a fixed or limited income.
  • Receive Social Security retirement or disability benefits.
  • Have experienced reduced employment or loss of income.
  • Face significant out-of-pocket medical expenses.
  • Are experiencing financial hardship related to cancer treatment.

Eligibility is determined individually based on household income, financial circumstances, and available program funding.

We recognize that financial hardship looks different for every family and encourage patients who need assistance to apply.

What Assistance Is Available?

Qualifying patients may receive reduced monthly lease rates for their Wishcaps cold cap therapy kit.

Assistance amounts vary based on individual financial need and available funding.

Approved assistance applies to the monthly kit lease unless otherwise specified in writing. Dry ice, shipping upgrades, and other additional services are not automatically included.

No deposit is required for standard Wishcaps kit leases, including approved financial assistance leases.
