For those in Victoria.
The Aids and Equipment Program (A&EP) which previously supplied a wig subsidy to people with alopecia has been replaced. The new program is called the State Wide Equipment Program (SWEP).
SWEP is a program of grants funded by the Department of Human Services and administered by Ballarat Health Services.
Two basic synthetic wigs (or equivalent contribution towards human hair wig, or more expensive synthetic wig up to the subsidy cost) $240 per 2 years
One human hair wig (child 16 years and under) $600 per wig
You can download an application form from the SWEP website
