Will Medicaid Cover Breast Surgery After Pregnancy?

Hi Roxy,
Although you describe your breasts as "deformed", virtually all insurance plans consider sagging and droopiness to be cosmetic problems. Insurance companies, including government-sponsored programs such as Medicaid or Medicare, do not cover cosmetic procedures. If it bothers you tremendously, many plastic surgeons participate with third-party financing companies to help make surgery more affordable.
Hope this helps. Best of luck.

Thanks for your question.
Medicaid and other health insurances will not cover a breast augmentation surgery. It is considered a cosmetic/ self pay procedure. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best wishes!

You will have to consult your insurance provider to find out if your breast surgery is covered. However, in general, the answer would be no unless it would resolve a physical impairment directly caused by your asymmetrical breasts, and breast augmentation or a breast lift is proven to be the most suitable treatment for you.

Medicaid will rarely cover any breast surgery other than breast cancer reconstruction following cancer, in my limited experience.

This would be considered cosmetic surgery and insurance companies do not cover cosmetic procedures.  In fact some insurances would go as far as not to cover any complications that can occur from cosmetic procedures.
Hope that helps.

Unfortunately there is liitle to no chance of having this covered as it is considered cosmetic.

Although surgery for breast cancer reconstruction is covered, insurance companies will not cover breast augmentation surgery that is cosmetic in nature.

Medicaid will only cover breast surgeries that are medically indicated, These include reconstructive surgery after breast cancer, and very symptomatic breast hypertrophy (large breasts) that fail coservative treatment.

Insurance will not cover cosmetic breast augmentation.

Breast reconstruction for deformities or after mastectomy can be submitted to insurance.
