To Whom It May Concern:
I have prescribed a National Biological Panosol II
Narrow Band UVB Phototherapy system for home therapy for JOHN Q
PUBLIC. I have been treating this patient since
[DATE] for Vitiligo.
JOHN Q PUBLIC has failed to respond to various
conventional topical therapies; therefore, in (month) of (year),
UVB Narrow Band therapy was initiated. This involves having the patient come to
my office for a minimum of two or three times per week for exposure to Narrow
Band Ultraviolet B light in gradually increasing increments.
The patient is responding well to this therapy, and currently is much improved.
I anticipate that this therapy will be needed and will continue for an
indefinite period of time, possibly a lifetime.
Since this treatment was started, JOHN Q PUBLIC
has had approximately ___ ultraviolet light treatment sessions at my office, at
a charge of $ each. This represents about
$_____ that insurance
has already invested in this therapy. It is my opinion that providing a UVB
Narrow Band light unit at home will save the insurance company a substantial
amount of money in the long run. It will also significantly reduce the hardship
my patient experiences in getting to and from my office two or three times a
week.
The National Biological Corp Panosol II unit
has the same potential as the ultraviolet light units used in my office and
other treatment centers for Vitiligo. This unit is designed for home use.
I would like to specifically point out that the prescribed unit is designed for
high intensity phototherapy and far exceeds the capabilities of the standard sun
lamp.
If you have any further questions regarding JOHN Q PUBLIC's
need for this specific form of therapy, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
(Doctor's signature)
