I went in for breast reduction consultation that I am hoping to have approved by my insurance. I had 3D pics taken but the doctor didn't take my height or weight, isn't this something the insurance company will want proof of? Is there a reason this wasn't done?

Answer: Breast reduction Yes indeed. The insurance company will always ask for height and weight and in essence your BMI. You can easily send this information to your surgeon.

Answer: Important Thank you for reaching out. I would agree with a few of the previous answers that height and weight are factors that should be given to the surgeon at a consultation. Those questions are typically on the patient info forms you fill out. A lot of surgical decisions and medication amounts are determined on those factors. Maybe go on a few more consultations with experienced board certified surgeons. best of luck! Dr. Kachenmeister
