How likely am I to have insurance pay for a septoplasty and accompany it with a rhinoplasty (paying for rhino myself)? (Photo)

Asked By:mercedesel

I believe my septum is deviated. My nose is very sideways and my nostrils are uneven. It is uncomfortable and breathing is a bit annoyingly I wanted to know where I should go to be diagnosed/how likely insurance is to cover it. I understand cosmetic rhinoplasties are not covered by insurance but are offered at a discount since they will be in there anyway and have already used anesthesia for the septoplasty. When I sniff, one nostril goes in/touches the bridge while the other doesn't.
