Does Medicaid cover forehead reduction?

Question

Well, my forehead sticks out pretty bad. I've been like this since child hood but I remember getting this knot on my forehead and another on the other side they went down but somehow it's like my forehead just sticks out irregularly.

Medicaid is a program created by the federal government, but administered by the state, to provide payment for medical services for low-income citizens.   It does not cover elective cosmetic surgery.

In Texas anyway, forehead reduction/brow lifts/lower lid blepharoplasty (lifts) are considered cosmetic and not covered.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

This is a cosmetic elective surgery which Medicaid does not cover.  If can be expensive in the $5000-8000 range
