When Septoplasty/Rhinoplasty Are BOTH Medically Necessary How Do You Get Coverage?

shelli.kent
When both Septoplasty/Rhinoplasty are BOTH medically necessary how do u get coverage from your insurance? My ENT says due to the fact that the bone in my nose is crooked and blocking my breathing as well as the exterior end of my nose is also crooked and blocks my breathing, I would need both at the same time to correct my breathing function. Trying to only do Septoplasty will not correct my problem?
