My breast have gotten bigger from taking risperdal & now my right boob is at least a cup size bigger then the left one. This causes my bras not to fit properly. Would Medicaid pay to have this fixed?

Answer: Breast Asymmetry Covered by Medicaid Unfortunately there probably isn't any insurance company that will cover your asymmetry as it is not considered medically necessary. Breast reduction surgeries are sometimes covered when they cause physical pain, even then it can be hard to get approval. Find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that specializes in breast surgery to help you find options such as financing. Good luck!

Answer: Medicaid Coverage of Breast Asymmetry Surgery? I do not have any experience with Medicaid paying for the type of surgery you are describing. Ultimately, you will need to be careful with the selection of your plastic surgeon.You may be best off gradually saving for the procedure and having it performed by the plastic surgeon who can demonstrate the most experience achieving the types of results you are looking for, as opposed to a plastic surgeon who will perform the procedure covered by a specific "insurance". Best wishes.
