Cosmetic surgery can be extremely satisfying for those who elect this option. Despite the medical nature of the procedures however, insurance companies generally do not reimburse for most cosmetic surgery. Some exceptions include many breast reductions. In these cases, it is often helpful for the patient to have a letter sent to the insurance company requesting pre-surgical authorization. It is also beneficial to supply documentation from other medical professionals supporting existing medical problems, which could constitute a medical necessity for the cosmetic procedure.
