:

I went for my consultation with pictures, etc. and by the time I left his office

and got home, I had two messages on my answering machine, one from the insurance

company telling me it was approved and one from the doctor's office telling me

the same thing. Pretty amazing. I had a

few little skin tags removed from my neck and abdomen a few years ago and it was

not covered because they considered it cosmetic and had to pay 200.00 to the

dermatologist. I guess it was how the plastic surgeon worded it and they

considered it reconstruction. My stomach was

hanging down to the middle of my thighs at the time, so I guess they considered

that to be a problem. Maybe if they resubmit with different verbage in their

letter, you will be able to get it covered.

I thank God every day, because we never would have been able to afford any of

this.

Good luck.

denial letter stated that this was purely cosmetic rather than reconstructive

two revision surgeries post RNY though.
