Do I have to make a co-payment?
Even after presenting a prescription, you will have to pay a co-payment at the specialist dealer, which is usually significantly higher than the conventional prescription fee.
Please inquire about this amount BEFORE you visit your doctor and BEFORE you order directly from your retailer.
How do I get the cuff with prescription?
Please first download the “Information sheet on cost sharing” and print it out. With these documents you then go to a specialist dealer (medical supply store or pharmacy). The documents are in German but it will be the only way the merchant understands the process clearly.
The specialized dealer should then contact us by Email (please exclusively by email) and will receive all trade information incl. purchase conditions from us.
After that, the specialist retailer can tell you the exact amount that you will have to pay yourself as a co-payment.
Please clarify this before visiting the doctor and placing an order.
You need a prescription from your doctor so that your health insurance can cover a share of the costs.
After talking to your specialist retailer, please speak to your doctor to see if he or she will issue you a prescription for our Masalo Cuff. Ask your doctor to explicitly prescribe the Masalo Cuff and ask your specialist retailer to exclusively hand out this product.
Also, please show the physician the printed “Cost Sharing Information Sheet”
What must be on the prescription?
Ideally, the prescription should state the following:
- Masalo Manschette MED 23.08.04.0042
(this is the aid number [German: Hilfsmittelnummer], optionally and if known, please also write down the “side and size” – you will find the measuring instructions and size chart here) - Epicondylitis humeri (or similar), re. or li (meaning: right or left)
- Alternatively: “Epicondylitis Manschette” (it should not say “bandage” on the label).
The doctor must not tick “Aut. Idem” under any circumstances!
The specialist retailer only has to follow the first 7 digits of the aid number and could therefore also give you a different product with the prescription, so you would have to insist that you really get a Masalo Cuff MED with the unique counter-traction principle of action (no other aid for epicondylitis has this, the others all work with compression without exception). Conversely, the specialist retailer can also provide you with the Masalo Cuff MED as long as an epicondylitis cuff from group 23.08.04.0xxx has been prescribed.
Where can I redeem the prescription?
Please take the prescription to a specialist retailer, such as a pharmacy, medical supply store or other specialist retailer that can bill the health insurance companies.
You will find a number of specialist dealers who already know our Masalo Cuff on the page store locator.
This dealer directory is growing steadily, but there are still very many specialist dealers who know neither us nor our product.
You can visit any specialty retailer or medical supplier near you. We supply all specialist dealers after they have requested our product information from us by email. Without this information, the specialized retailer can neither calculate the price, nor can we supply it. So please make sure that the specialist dealer sends us an email.
This information can also be found in the “Cost Sharing Information Sheet”.

My specialty retailer cannot/would not redeem the prescription:
If you have difficulty finding a specialty retailer who will redeem your prescription, please search the “Store locator” for one of our partner dealers in your area. Or contact us via our “contact form”.
I am privately insured – what do I have to consider?
Up to now, all privately insured persons have simply visited our Onlineshop and then simply submitted the prescription together with our invoice – possibly also with the payment receipt – during the regular billing process with their private insurance.
However, please do not order the cuff until you already have the prescription in your hands.
We have no feedback to date that there was ever a rejection. To be on the safe side, you can make a brief inquiry with your insurance company beforehand. Please include the HMV/aid number 23.08.04.0042 everywhere.
