Answer: How do I get breast implants with Medicaid? I have fibrocystic breast disease. Elective breast surgery will not be covered through Medicaid or any other type of “insurance”. Personally, I think that the best way to go is to slowly save up for the desired procedure. In my opinion, best to be financially, psycho socially, and physically stable prior to proceeding with elective surgery. Patients undergoing elective surgery should understand that additional expenses may become necessary, in the short or long-term. Best wishes.

Answer: Medicaid will not and should not pay for breast augmentation. Elective cosmetic surgery is not covered by Medicaid. Breast augmentation is something you will have to save it for and pay out-of-pocket.

Answer: Unless you have had breast cancer, Medicaid does not cover breast implants Medicaid is meant for medically necessary services. Fibrocystic breasts do not mean you "need" breast implants. They are medically necessary only for breast reconstruction after breast cancer. Otherwise, breast implants are 100% cosmetic, elective, and not medically necessary. Medicaid does not and should not cover such a procedure.

Answer: How do I get breast implants with Medicaid? I have fibrocystic breast disease. Thank you for your question. Unfortunately the insurance will not cover breast augmentation.If you have significant fibrocystic disease which requires multiple biopsies breast augmentation with implants may not be a viable option for you.
