How long to be approved for breast reduction with Medicaid in Texas? (Photo)

Question

I'm 20 years old, 5'2, 135 lbs, and have a 32DDD breast size. Would Medicaid cover this procedure? If so how long will it take and what size would they be after the procedure.

Joseph M. Perlman, MD · Answer

I am not a Medicare or Medicaid provider. Most plastic surgeons in the Houston area don't take Medicaid. Your best bet would be through Baylor College of Medicine or the University of Texas Health Science Center. They could probably tell you whether you meet the criteria for Medicaid to cover the cost of the procedure. Good luck

Keith Denkler, MD · Answer

It seems you would be covered for this surgery.However, it takes an exam, paperwork, and photos plus months to get it approved.
