Does Medicaid require medical documentation for a breast reduction?

Do I need to have documentation of back pain, etc. from my physician for Medicaid to deem it medically necessary before seeing a plastic surgeon or can I skip the physician and go straight to the plastic surgeon and Medicaid still cover it?
