Financial Coverage

The cost of mastectomy bras and breast prostheses shouldn't be an additional burden as you focus on healing from treatment. Fortunately, both provincial health programs and private insurance plans often provide reimbursement for these expenses.

Under $100

The average cost of a post-mastectomy bra is under $100.00.

$200 to $500

Prostheses costs can range between $200.00 – $500.00.

Health Care Plan

Depending on where you live, your provincial healthcare plan may reimburse some costs of breast prostheses.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on the plan, they often will cover prostheses as well as post-operative bras once per year.
