Making a New Post-Mastectomy Fitting Appointment
Welcome to Bambolinas – Your Post-Mastectomy Fitting Specialists in Folsom
Located conveniently behind Chili’s in Folsom, Bambolinas provides expert post-mastectomy fittings, breast prostheses, and pocketed bras. We are contracted with most major insurance carriers, allowing us to bill your healthcare provider directly for your medical supplies and services.
Compassionate Care for Your Post-Mastectomy Journey
If you’ve recently had surgery, your wounds must be fully healed before we can provide and bill for new silicone prosthetics or bras. However, we offer compression bras and temporary breast forms to support you during the healing process.
Once your incisions have healed, our experienced staff will guide you through a personalized fitting appointment to find the perfect prosthesis and bra for your body. We take a holistic approach, ensuring comfort, confidence, and a supportive experience. You are welcome to bring a support person with you—we are here to make this transition as smooth as possible.
Insurance Billing & Requirements
If you would like us to bill your insurance on your behalf, here’s what you’ll need:
1. A Prescription from Your Doctor
• Your oncologist or primary care physician must provide a prescription for post-mastectomy bras or prosthetics.
• If you already have a prescription, it must be signed within the last 90 days.
• The prescription must include:
• Your name & date of birth
• Diagnosis & medical code
• The specific products needed
• Your doctor’s name, license number, and wet signature
• If your prescription is incomplete, we can send a request to your doctor after your initial fitting appointment.
• A blank Dispensing Order Form is available under the Forms section on our website.
2. New Patient Intake Form
• This one-page form includes basic demographics, assignment of benefits, HIPAA compliance, and a brief release of information.
• It must be completed and signed before we can proceed.
3. Insurance & Identification
• A copy of your insurance card (primary and secondary, if applicable).
• A valid photo ID.
Pre-Authorization Process
Most insurance providers require pre-authorization for post-mastectomy bras and prostheses. This is initiated by your doctor and based on medical necessity. In most cases, authorization takes about 30 days.
Kaiser Members: You can initiate the authorization process through your KP.org patient portal by requesting approval from your primary doctor. If you need assistance, our team is happy to help.
