Will insurance pay for breast lift after WLS
I've just been approved for WLS and I know that one of the things I want done after a certain amount of weight loss is to have my breast lifted. My question is how can I get insurance to pay for this? Can this be considered a medical necessity since my boobs hangs and I sweat like crazy under the hanging boobs? For additional information I have Federal Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Probably not...the invention and worldwide use of the BRA sort of takes that issue off the medical necessity list. Personally I have a "mud flap fund" I am squirreling money into...I think my tummy will be covered... but my arms and boobs? I think that would be a bit pushing my luck.
Great luck with your surgery and welcome to the new you!!!!!
