How can I get insurance to cover for my breast implants removal?

November 12, 2018
Asked By:Slimslip in Flagstaff, AZ

I've had my implants for 11 years now, and I am 51 years old. I've been having a bothersome consistent pain on my left implant. Also all of sudden I've been having sciatica pain and two really bad vertigo episodes on my left ear. So all of the bad things are happening on the left side of my body which indicates this is related to my left breast implant. How can I or what are the steps to follow to get my insurance to cover this procedure? I have anthem BC/BS.
