How much does a nipple sparing prophylactic mastectomy cost?

skittles88
My mom had breast cancer and though we don't have the brca gene mutation I would still like to get a prophylactic mastectomy so I don't have to worry about breast cancer. How much would it cost? Would it be covered by insurance?
