Hi there- Otoplasty is fundamentally NOT a medically necessary procedure, and will therefore not be covered by Medicaid.

Ear lobe reduction can be performed by removing excess tissue. It is possible to have this done at the same time as your pinnaplasty. Usually, the cost for otoplasty refers to any surgical correction you perform on the ear, so your pinnaplasty and lobe reduction would most likely be covered.
