I had multiple fibro tumors on my uterus that grew into a very large mass I had to have surgery because of the size the Dr. cut me straight down vertically to removed my uterus and now I have a big stomach and all this excessive skin after surgery.

Answer: Tummy tuck Insurance Hi and thank you for your question and picture. Unfortunately, no, insurance (including medicare/medicaid) do not cover abdominoplasty procedures. These are considered cosmetic and not medically necessary.

Answer: Will Medicaid pay for tummy tuck under medically necessary plastic surgery and not cosmetic? Thank you for sharing your question. Unfortunately Medicaid will not cover the cost of a tummy tuck as they deem it "not medically necessary" in nearly all cases. I would recommend seeing a plastic surgeon in consultation after you are healed from your hysterectomy to see what treatment options do exist for you to be able to reduce the amount of excess skin present. Hope this helps.
