I am 29 and 5"3 and weigh 140 lbs. I push out of a 34dd and would like to go down to a 34 full b/c. I have gone through two pregnancies/nursing and am now done. I have waited the 7 mo post nursing and have lost all the weight and then some. I have BCBS of NJ ppo and would like them to cover surgery as I cannot alone. I have documented with past ob/gyns the neck/back pain and headaches. Any words of advice to make this go smoothly with insurance. (live in NV with surgeons in ntwrk)

Answer: Breast reduction insurance coverage
Based on your description you may be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery; for physical and emotional reasons.
The best way to obtain insurance coverage for breast reduction surgery involves some “hoops” to jump through. The more documentation you have (for example, from your primary care doctor, physical therapist, chiropractor etc.) the better when it comes to obtaining insurance “authorization” for the procedure.
This documentation and letter/pictures from your plastic surgeon will help you obtain authorization. Make sure you're working with a well-trained/experienced board-certified plastic surgeon.
Good luck!
