Tummy tuck and insurance costs, price reduction,American Society of Bariatric Plastic Surgeons

I agree that it should be a covered procedure but most insurance companies do not agree! I have had many patients after loosing a lot of weight after gastric bypass and having skin problems who are not covered. You could apopeal but these processes may take a year or more. I am offering a significant discount because of the economy. Also, you should visit one of the members of the American Society of Bariatric PLastic Surgeons of which I am president.
