Answer: The government paying for cosmetic surgery Insurance companies and government medical coverage such as provided by the military, Medicare or Medi-Cal do not nor should they pay for cosmetic surgery. This is taxpayers money and that should not be spent on treatments that are not medically indicated. If you are a male to female trans gendered person it's possible you have a legal right for this type of a procedure. Still even so I doubt the military would offer the procedure for free. It's generally better to save your money and pay for a procedure then financing it and paying high interest fees. This may be a good time in your life to begin improving your personal financial skills by saving some money and then having a procedure. Best, Mats Hagstrom M.D.
