Medicaid cover breast reduction surgery?

My chest is just too big and my back is killing me every day. Since I'm having serious back problems, would reduction surgery be considered preventative surgery? So would that mean medicaid would cover it?

I'm a little over a DDD. So I'm not just complaining about nothing.

Oh and please don't leave any crude remarks, thanks

Yes they do. Especially with serious back issues. I know of several women who have Medicaid and are covered.

Check out http://www.breasthealthonline.com it is an excellent site for SUPPORT and information!

Or contact me if you want :) I had mine reduced Feb 2006 and don't regret it one bit.

Why aren't you having back surgery instead?

So many women would almost kill to have just one cupful of what you're throwing away....:(

Only if you can get a doctor to convince them that is a surgically necessary procedure, and document it!
