Will SoonerCare cover breast reduction surgery for a 15 1/2 yr old that is 5'3", 135 lbs and a 32G?

Asked By:Queen_B84 in Oklahoma City, OK

My daughter will be 16 this year. She is 5'3", weighs 135 lbs, and is a 32G breast size. Her back, neck, and shoulders constantly hurt, and she cannot stand longer than 20-25 min at a time before she has to sit down to relieve the constant pressure she feels. My question is, she is on SoonerCare, so would she be a likely candidate for breast reduction surgery? Also, what are the steps I need to take to begin the process of seeing if she qualifies?
