Question:
Has anyone in Ga. been approved for excess skin removal by medicaid/medicare?

So far I've lost a 135lbs. and I have started thinking about plastic surgery. My surgeon wants me to wait until I'm a year out which will be Dec. 8,2004. I'm just thinking ahead and hoping they will approve it. Any info you may have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.    — PRETTYGRL (posted on August 17, 2004)

Hiya, I'm not from GA, but I do know MEDICARE will cover Tummy tuck if Dr. says it's medically necessary- Medicare is nationwide- however medicaid varys state to state, but from my understanding MOST state ins. WILL cover- again only if medically necessary !
