Will United Healthcare Pay for surgery?

[craftspace234]

Does anyone here have United health care? If so, do you know if they will pay for surgery at all? Even partially?

I work at UPS and get united health care for insurance.

Most insurance companies are loathe to cover gyne surgery -- they deem it cosmetic.  If you have any chance at all, you should do your homework.  Contact your insurance company and ask them about their criteria for covering gyne surgery.  Then look at your own situation CRITICALLY and see if you could qualify.  They may require physician notes, history of medications, etc.  Then consult with your physician within your plan and see if you could qualify.

Unfortunately, most guys who have pubertal onset gyne with no other qualifications will not be covered.

Good  luck!
