find out how to get ins. to pay for a tummy tuck

how to fid out if ins.bcbs will pay for tummy tuck

You can call the insurance company (there should be a customer service number on the back of your insurance card) or check with your employer's benefits department. Best of luck. Kasey 365/210 (nonop)

What ever you do, don't call it a "tummy tuck" when you call the insurance company. Call it by its clinical name, Panilectomy, (I believe thats how you spell it) anyway tell them that you have to have a panniculus removed. Most insurance companies will approve because having extra skin can cause problems such as skin infections and stuff. I read this in a book about WLS. and it was also on Discovery Health. Good luck sweetie! Lana
