I am 32, 5'5", 265 lbs. I was approved to get breast reduction surgery am 59 k but say I have to lose the weight. In way it's kind hard for me to lose the weight cuz of my back and this thing in my stomach feels like a knock. Also my breasts are infected, I will send pictures. All this happened after I had a baby in Dec 14 2007. I had a C-section and then in 2017 it started. Please help me. Anyway U have Healthfirst and Medicaid and I also have CareCredit

Answer: Tummy tuck candidate Dear monkeytree, tummy tuck is an elective procedure and it will not be covered by insurance. In some cases, insurance will cover the cost of panniculectomy. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Will medicaid pay for my tummy tuck? Hello and thank you for your question and photo's. No, medicaid does not cover a cosmetic surgery that isn't medically necessary. Once in a while they will cover a breast reduction if the patient falls into the perameters required.
