Answer: Insurance coverage for breast reductions can be expected if you have documentation of your symptoms and problems attributed to your breast weight AND a minimum amount of breast tissue can be removed to fulfill the insurance companies guidelines. If you have dense breasts, this is easily met. If you have fluffy breasts, it may not be covered. Best to see a local participating plastic surgeon for more advice and to see if you would meet the guidelines.

Answer: Breast reduction covered by insurance There are many ways in which breast reduction can benefit the appropriate patient. If you have back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, grooves caused by bra straps, rash in the fold of your breast, difficulty with exercise or activities of daily living, or poor posture, you may benefit from breast reduction surgery. You insurance company will cover a breast reduction if medically indicated. This means that you must fail conservative treatment of your symptoms for at least three months. This needs to be documented in the medical records. Also there is a certain amount of breast tissue that must be removed during the breast reduction surgery. The amount of tissue is based on a your height and weight.
