Are there any circumstances where any doctor has been able to get medicaid to cover a mommy make over if it is due to medical conditions, such as Dercum's disease and Fibromyalgia?
Answer: Will Medicaid cover a mommy makeover for medical reasons? Insurance will pay for a hernia repair almost always. They will not pay for diastasis recti repair. They will pay for a breast reduction if you meet the criteria. They will not pay for an augmentation or lift. They may pay for a panniculectomy if you skin hanging over 2 inches. This is not a tummy tuck. They will not pay for a tummy tuck or mommy makeover.

Answer: Will Medicaid cover a mommy makeover for medical reasons? A mommy makeover is considered cosmetic surgery and insurances do not tend to cover them. However, a mommy makeover consists of different procedures combine together and a breast reduction could be part of it. Which in that case, medical insurance could cover the breast reduction portion depending on the medical reasons.

Answer: Medicaid Cover Mommy Makeover Thank you for your question, unfortunately I do not believe I have ever heard of Medicaid covering any procedure that may be a part of a mommy makeover because these procedures are purely cosmetic. Occasionally a breast reduction may be covered by insurance, but getting approval may be difficult. Insurance companies want to see that a patient has first tried nonsurgical means, such as physical therapy and/or chiropractic treatments, to resolve issues such as neck, back, and/or shoulder pain. If problems still persist, it helps for a patient to have several doctor recommendations, such as from a primary-care doctor, gynecologist, plastic surgeon, and chiropractor to have breast reduction surgery. A substantial amount of tissue, about a pound in weight or 400-500cc, needs to be taken from each breast in order for health insurance carriers to deem the surgery necessary.
