Insurance coverage for the Gynecomastia surgery

[aztec123]

Hello Friends,
    Does any body know about any insurance company that can cover the expenses for the Gyne surgery?

Hi Dude,

Sorry to say, But doesnt look like Insurance can be covered for this type of surgery as they remark it as a "Cosmetic Surgery" sadly! 
But do let me know too if you find out anything good about the insurance part!! It would help me too...

If you and your doctor can somehow show that it's medically necessary (i.e., because of pain, etc.), then you might have a shot at getting insurance to cover it.  But your medical records would probably need to show that from day one, you complained of pain (or some other medical reason).

I have BCBS out of Minnesota, and all it took for me was just my PS saying it was medically necessary. That was just a month ago.
