Do Insurance companies pay for a tummy tuck after a woman has had a c-section?

Unfortunately, insurance does not cover a tummy tuck. Occasionally with documentation of recurrent infection they will pay for a panniculectomy (simply removing loose skin).#tt#tummytuck

You will have to consult your insurance provider to find out if your tummy tuck is covered. However, in general, the answer would be no unless it would resolve a physical impairment directly caused by excess skin and fat as well as separated muscles in the area you want to target, and a tummy tuck is proven to be the most suitable treatment for you.

A tummy tuck is considered an elective procedure and therefore is unlikely to be covered by any medical insurance. If you have any medical complications see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can help you determine if you should try to get coverage. Good luck!
