Any Canadians have pannus removal covered by OHIP?

I am a Canadian living in Germany - my husband is in the military and working with NATO.  The health insurance plan we pay into covered part of my weight loss surgery based on the rates used by OHIP and I assume they will probably do the same with a panniculectomy. 

Thanks,
Mickie

Me too.  I go on Tuesday!  I did self-pay for an upgrade to a full TT.

Thank you both for replying :)

Erica, would you mind sharing how much extra it cost to upgrade to a tummy tuck?  I am wondering if I should have surgery here or wait until I am back in Canada.

Thanks,
Mickie

I had a LBL, with the panni portion covered by OHIP. P.S best wishes for your surgery Erica!
