Is thighplasty and Panniculectomy typically covered due to 10+ years of hidradenitis suppurativa flares in that region?

Asked By:StormyJade in Massachusetts, MA

I have been suffering from hidradenitis suppurativa for over a decade now, with most flares being on my inner thigh/bikini line. I have lost almost 50lbs so far but my belly hang and my thighs are continually causing outbreaks. I am unable to work out due to outbreaks it seems like a continued cycle. Would insurance cover the thighplasty due to the HS with doctors documentation? I believe the panniculectomy is covered I just wasn't sure about the thighplasty?
