please help me need surgery
My plastic surgeon submitted photos to my insurance company and used the coding for skin excision and it was approved. It will end up saving me about $3,000 dollars. I am having a full tummy tuck, lower body lift, breast lift and arms done so I need to pay the difference which will be about $25,000. Good luck.

Start doing your work.
contact your health plan and see if they cover any "skin removal surgeries" --
Ask them to send you the requirements for coverage in writing! This is vital as what you're told is not always accurate. If they don't cover anything then look into getting your surgery through a residency program or out of the country. Do you research. It's your body and your life, don't trust anyone -- RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!
I had to pay cash for all of my procedures. I've had 9 done and I have 5 more to go this next year. IF you truly want the work done, you will find a way to get it done.

I would suggest going to the American Society of Bariatric Plastic Surgeons website(www.ASBPS.org) to look for members in your area. I try and get insurance to cover my patients surgeries and if not, then offer excellent financing options. I also offer substantial discounts to military as well as those patients willing to share their stories with our media requests.
