Asked By:Thrifty680018 in San Antonio, Texas

Hello I am a 26 year old female. I weigh 260 pounds. I struggle with a lot of hanging skin on my belly. I've had 3 c sections and I think they have really put a toll on my stomach. I have superior medicaid. I'm trying to see if I qualify for a panniculectomy. I called a surgeon, they said they do accept insurance for the procedure but I need to get a referral. How would I go about getting a referral from a doctor? What would I say? How can I get them to give me one? Would I qualify with my weight ?
