Question
I am being told thta Medicare does not pre-approve breast reductions(in Nevada)and that I need to pay for the surgery up front. If i had that kind of money I wouldn't be on medicare in the first place. Is there some place I can call or write to get the surgery pre-approved?
Answer
Are you talking about Medicaid? Medicare is generally for the older population and does not require pre approvals. And breast reduction is covered under Medicare if it is medically necessary. If you are talking about Medicaid, that is state run and you need to seek help in your state.
