Question

My question. I have been thinking about getting the reduction surgery but i don't know if I'd get approved. I'd go as far down as a c cup but i don't know how any of it work.

Vincent N. Zubowicz, MD · Answer

Some insurance companies don't cover breast reduction under any circumstances. Your plastic surgeon will have to sort out whether or not your company will covered your procedure based on their criteria.

Barry Press, MD · Answer

Insurance companies are unpredictable in terms of covering breast reduction. Your best course of action is to see a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery to obtain a complete evaluation and discussion of the best options for you. If he/she feels that insurance may cover the procedure, a request for pre-authorization can be made. This usually involves submission of photographs and a detailed description of your problems caused by the size and weight of your breasts.Good luck!
