I have federal insurance GEHA. Would they pay/cover for my male breast reduction?

I think that you will find it unlikely that any type of “insurance” company will help with male breast reduction surgery. Of course, for specific/accurate information you will need to check with your specific insurance carrier.  When the time is right, seek consultation with board certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience helping patients in your situation. Best wishes.

Dear Richie1234,Occasionally male breast reduction can be paid for by an insurer but it is becoming increasingly rare.  Some of the federal insurance plans don't even do prior approval, which means there is no way to tell if it will be covered.  I would call your carrier to see if it is even a covered service.  I recommend you  see a plastic surgeon with experience in the field.  Most offices will work with you to get and answer.

The insurers stopped paying for male breast reduction about 10 years ago.  The only basis on which they will pay is documented suspicious masses which require resection, typically combined with a BRCA positive gene or immediate family history  of breast cancer.  Otherwise, they find that it is not functionally or medically necessary.  Their position isn't that you shouldn't have the surgery but that they shouldn't have to pay for it!
