The only time I have seen a breast lift covered by insurance was for severe rashes

Will my insurance pay for breast lift?

I had a patient about seven years ago who was able to get a breast lift authorized by her insurance company due to her severe rashes beneath the breasts.  She worked outside in the heat of the desert and these rashes were debilitating.  Other than such an extreme case, I have not seen this procedure aiuthorized by insurance companies.

Helpful?
