Tailored clothes and equipment

Do you need specialist care? Adapted clothes and equipment can make a big difference. We're happy to reimburse you for these costs.

75 euros reimbursed

A turban or adapted bra for cancer patients, leg supports for ostomy patients, adapted underwear for people suffering from eczema, or protection for a colostomy. Thanks to Helan health insurance, you receive 75 euros per year reimbursed.

Please provide us with the invoice and, once only, the reimbursement form, completed by your treating physician.
