Documentation for breast reduction insurance depends on your health plan

John P. Di Saia, MD answers: How to get documentation for breast reduction insurance?

In my past question, I was told I could go to a regular family doctor or a gynecologist to get documention for breast reduction insurance. How do I go about doing this? Do I need to request a letter or what?

Hello,

As I don't do any HMO work, I usually just send a letter to the insurer requesting pre-approval. If you have an HMO the process might be different. Insurers don't always make this very easy. I would ask your insurer directly to try to get the best answer.
