In general, the answer is NO. The only way you might have insurance coverage for tummy tuck is if you have constant rashes from the skin overlap and your dermatologist has tried for a long time unsuccessfully to treat it.
Good luck on insurance coverage of Tummy Tuck
Barry E. DiBernardo, MD answers: How to convince insurance company to cover tummy tuck?
I went to see about a tummy tuck and the doctor said I was a good candidate to have it done. As soon as she heard of my insurance, she said no they do not cover that. With me having hip pain, back pain, unable to do many exercises from excess skin, how does a doctor let my insurance company know it is not just cosmetic. She did not even try to help me get my insurance company to do the surgery. I would like some help in this area.
