Will Medicaid Pay from Saline Breast Implant Removal?

August 30, 2012
Asked By:mina_215

I had breast augmentation under the muscle in 1998 with saline implants. For the past 5 years or so I've been having pain and discomfort in my breast and nipples, back & shoulders. I don't sleep well because of the discomfort & the implants will "travel" under my armpits if I lay on my back. Also if I bend over and use my pectoral muscles for anything they stay painfully contracted for a minute until they relax & the implant drops down. Would I qualify for medicaid to remove them? Thanks.
