Alopecia areata treatments could be covered by health insurance

"Obtaining insurance coverage for the medical treatments for alopecia areata can present a challenge since no treatments are currently approved by the FDA for this disease, and so any treatment is “off-label” (used in a way that is not listed on the drug label). The reimbursement problem is compounded by the insurance industry often perceiving such treatments as merely “cosmetic”, rather than medically necessary, and using this description to deny claims."
