I have diastasis recti and it has caused me to have asthma and when I bend over I get aspiration pneumonia. I have had pneumonia 3 times this year.
Answer: Will insurance pay to fix diastasis recti? Cosmetic procedures which include diastasis recti are not covered by medical insurance as they are deemed unnecessary. Diastasis recti usually results from lifting heavy weights incorrectly, performing excessive or unsafe abdominal exercises, or excessive inter-abdominal pressure such as pregnancy. Asthma and aspiration pneumonia are not caused by diastasis recti.

Answer: Will insurance pay to fix diastasis recti? Unfortunately, insurances do not cover diastasis recti since they do not necessarily think of it as a medical necessity. They classify it as a cosmetic procedure.

Answer: Rectus diastasis surgery not covered by insurance No, insurance polices almost uniformly exclude rectus diastasis repair from consideration of coverage under health insurance policies. The only carrier that I've seen willing to cover that has been Tricare, the military insurance for active duty soldiers and their families.
