Step 1

Contact your insurance company to see if they cover the purchase of a unit. Some insurance companies specify the type of units they will reimburse for (some will only reimburse purchases for the briteLITE series of 10,000 lux light boxes).

Step 2

Most insurance companies require the following:

• Your insurance company has a form you need to fill out. You can get it by calling member services, or going online to your insurance company's website.
• A doctor's prescription-including a "diagnosis code" from your doctor.
• An itemized bill of services rendered or products purchased along with date of service/purchase (your Apollo receipt).
• Procedure codes: HCPC: E0203 | CPT: 96900
