You might want to ask this question on the Plastic Surgery Message Board. I have Medicare and a secondary insurance Tricare Prime (military). Medicare will not approve or disapprove any plastic surgery, so if you have a secondary insurance have the plastic surgery submit to them. Other wise you pay for the plastic surgery and if Medicare finds that it is medically necessary they will pay. The problem is finding a ps that will do surgery with those terms, almost impossible. They want all there money before they do a surgery, so if you pay cash, you pay there regular price and Medicare will only reinbuse you the amount that the rate is set up with the ps. My secondary insurance paid what Medicare did not pick up, but my secondary approved my plastic surgeries and the ps was fine with that because he knew he would be paid.
