Medical reaso for insurance coverage



Recommended Posts

I do have some excess abdominal skin after substantial LB loss and would love to tighten this area up. I know the full TT is not covered by my blue cross plan and have been told I need medical documentation for any PS coverage either by PLas. surgeon or bar. surgeon for any kind of PS coverage. Is there any medical reason that I can get documented for abdom. work done if there is not an excessive flap of skin hanging? Has anyone gotten ins. coverage for loose tummy skin that was not excessive or hanging?

Hi, I know my bariatric surgeon was able to get my TT covered through my insurance (I am going in for it next month). Insurance covered it due to things like redness in the creases, rashes, etc.
