Hi Sarah:

Yes, I did get alot of insurance coverage toward my tummy tuck. I had rashes under the flab that I had hanging after losing 140'ish pounds. I showed the rash to my lapband surgeon and also to the plastic surgeon. They submitted pictures to Blue Cross saying that it was medically necessary and they covered the panniculectomy part of my tummy tuck. I don't know the exact amounts, but I know I paid only $7,000. I think that the full cost is almost $20,000 here the Boston Area. I stayed overnight one night in a very nice hospital with a private room. Good luck to you.

Sue
