Question 2

What does a breast form cost?

Answer

Silicone forms are subsidized by the Ontario Ministry of Health. As your purchase for a breast prosthesis is paid in full at the time of your fitting, we will supply you with the application for your OHIP reimbursement. Coverage for a full prosthesis is $195; coverage for a partial is $105. The balance may be claimed through private insurance or income tax reimbursements. Coverage is also available through the City of Ottawa and First Nation.

Question 3

Can you order a bra or breast form in my size?

Answer

Absolutely! If you don't see what you're looking for in store, we will order in your size. We can also take the time to properly fit you to ensure that your size is exact.
