What can I do if my insurance denies coverage for breast reduction?
AphrdteApr 27, 2015
Hello! I have recently met with my primary doctor after speaking to my insurance company (aetna) for months about getting a breast reduction. (25 y/o female with a 38J bra size) according to aetna, I should more than qualify for a reduction as I have back, neck, shoulder pain, chest pain and pressure, arm numbness while laying on sides, etc. But they denied my dr's request for "cosmetic" reasons, but its all health related for me. I have a referral to a phys. Therapist. Help, what else can i do?
