Need a doctor in Westchester New-York that take Fidelis Insurance
Answer: Cost of surgery Dear shilleen jones, Diastasis recti repair is an elective procedure and it is not covered by insurance. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Diastasis Recti Insurance Coverage Thank you for asking this question. I wish I could say it is a covered procedure, as for many people the symptoms can be debilitating. However, up to date, it is not seen as a medically necessary procedure. Specifically, there isn't a specific code for diastasis recti repair like there is for example a hernia repair. However, it's no uncommon to have a hernia coexist with diastasis recti. The hernia portion is generally a covered procedure and can be submitted for reimbursement.

Answer: When you have Diastasis Recti is it covered by insurance? No. If you have an umbilical hernia which can be repaired in most instances at the time of the tummy tuck with diastasis recti repair, the tummy tuck will not be covered by insurance, but hernia repair typically is (though the reimbursement is pathetic). You will be responsible for the deductible.

Answer: Diastasis recti repair Diastasis recti repair is part of an abdominoplasty and not covered by medical insurance. True abdominal or ventral hernias should be covered by insurance companies- usually treated by general surgeons, not plastic surgeons.

Answer: No insurance for diastasis Diastasis rectus is not considered a medical issue covered by insurance to correct. Almost all insurances that I have seen make a specific point to note that it is not covered.
