How can I get someone to do tummy tuck with Medicare!!

Is there anyone out there who could tell me of someone in NC or SC that would do a tummy tuck for me. Everyone I have called so far has acted rude when I mention medicare , they say don't do this because it's not medically needed and they will not even file for medicare to pay for it. They immediately get on the offensive. When I ask them if they know of anyone that will do this they say they don't know of anyone. I had gastric bypass 3 years ago and have a lot of loose skin that needs to go. I just thought since I have Medicare anyway, and Medicare payed for my gastric bypass that it wouldn't be too much to ask for someone to try to use Medicare for my tummy tuck. I don't consider it cosmetic I consider it as skin that gets in the way of walking and does have rashes other problems. If anyone knows of anyone who would do the tummy tuck or what are the rules of offices not using Medicare, please answer. Thank you so much in advance. I don't know where to turn for answers about this.
