Can a Breast reduction be approved through insurance without documentation of physical therapy?

Asked By:thurd12 in Los Angeles, CA

I am concerned about the documentation that I dont have. I only have documentation of one appointment in the past where I've complained about my shoulders aching. I know that each insurance has requirements of what is needed to cover a reduction, however do they make exceptions? Doctors, are there many patients that get approved without the evidence of going through physical therapy? Patients, has anyone gotten their surgery approved without the doccumentation of going through physical therapy?
