What are the prerequisites I need to do to have Horizon BC/BS NJ Direct cover a breast reduction?

Asked By:kae5222 in Toms River, NJ

I need advice on how to go about getting a breast reduction covered. I'm 5'3", 146 Ibs, and I have 36 I/J's. I would love to go down to a C, as my breasts cause me immense back pain that a chiropractor can't relieve. My left is also larger than my right. It's really frustrating that I can no longer run or work out comfortably, and everything I wear is either inappropriate if it is fitted, or I have to buy two sizes up. If someone has advice on how I should go about this, it would be appreciated.
