Can you have a breast reduction surgery covered with state aid?

While you're at it why don't you check into getting a nose job and a tummy tuck.  I don't mind paying taxes for you to be happy.  I'm sure my taxes are being spent on many things a lot less important than your breasts.

I would say contact the show if you're interested in getting the surgery paid for.  I don't think contacting the doctors personally will help you out financially with the procedures.

The best way to go about finding that plastic surgeon willing to help would be to ask directly, and ask many! If it is truly something they would view as a charity situation,I'd imagine a few would do it out of kindness(and/or publicity). If it's something cosmetic to improve self-image for the patient, some offer to line up payment plans usually through local places, interest rate im sure based on the patient's credit rating. my guess would be 12% as a good example. if they wont let you ask for referrals from former patients, i would have trouble trusting them. And if it is for you personally, make sure it's important enough to you to go through a good bit of pain and recovery time before you make that decision. there are some things i could consider changing about myself, but i realize that people like me for who i am a great deal more than my appearance. whether for you or someone else, i hope I've been helpful,and have a great weekend!

While its true medicaid may not pay for it, but I am sure your doctor can make it seem as though if you do not get this surgery you will die. I mean its the only way they are able to get most insurance companies to pay for it, (more and more are not covering it).\nAlso there are banks/lenders that will loan you the money to pay for surgery, you only need check online or with your own bank.\nwww.capitalonehealthcarefinance.com \nwww.tangcompany.com \nare a couple I have found online. Also you can call your local hospital, or bariatric center to see if they know of a bank. I know often times Bank Of America does loans for some procedures, you may check them out as well. hope this helps you.

This is a repeated question but I will put my answer down anyway cause you may really need help.\n\nPlease visit your Member of Parliament for help. He/she will try to arrange for financial assistance. You can use Medisave, to pay for your operation fees which should be subsidized. Since cancer may need additional treatments like radiation and chemotherapy, maybe you like to stress these out to your MP or just ask the hospital for help. Your MP can also write to HDB to try to reduce your rents. There are always many schemes around, you just have to ask the right people.

Many patients travel from United States of America and UK to get low cost of Breast Reconstruction surgery in India. One of the most frequently asked questions when considering Breast Reconstruction surgery is "how much?" and “what is the price of surgery in India?”\n\nOftentimes, patients choose their surgeon on the basis of price. \nThe cost of Breast Reconstruction surgery is very affordable in India and costs are much lower when compared to the United States, UK and other countries. However, since the success of your surgery is largely dependent on your choice of surgeon, cost should not be your main consideration for your decision to undergo Breast Reconstruction surgery in India.\n\nI checked out the website of Forerunners Healthcare –which is the premier most medical tourism company in India offering low cost surgery in India to International Patients. They have served more than 400 International patients from across the globe (specially US and UK) to get low cost affordable surgery in India at the best Hospitals and Medical Institutions. And the general price of the Breast Reconstruction surgery is as follows-\n\nThe Cost of Breast Reconstruction surgery in India is $ 3,900.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\n\nIn India, any licensed medical doctor can perform Breast Reconstruction surgery. To avoid unsatisfactory results, it is best to choose a surgeon who has completed an accredited residency-training program in Breast Reconstruction surgery. He should have extensive experience in the procedure you will undergo. That’s when Forerunners Healthcare come into picture-helping you get the best surgeon for your surgery at the most affordable prices in the best Hospitals of India.\n\nYour surgeon's skill can make all the difference between a good and an average result. Thus, although it is understandable that price is one of the considerations in your choice of surgeon, it is important to remember that the main consideration should be your surgeon's professional qualifications and experience.\n\nBesides that you should look into other issues related to traveling abroad, which is your visa, passport, climate, cultural issues and language barrier. Although language is not a problem in India –as most of the people are well verse in English. But you should make sure that you have a reliable hand holding person to guide you through the various steps of getting medical treatment and surgery in India.\n\nHope this helps.

I'm having a breast reduction and tummy tuck on April 24th. I'm currently 5'3", 185 lbs, 38DD size 14-16 pants. I'm quite nervous but I'm looking forward to it. I've been watching alot of Dr 90210 on tv to desensitize myself. I think you should definitely have it. I look forward to my new body and an increase in self esteem. By the way, if you have insurance, go to a plastic surgeon. They can write a letter to your insurance and say it's medically necessary if you truly are big. My insurance is paying for my breast reduction so all I'm paying for is the tummy tuck. Good luck!!!
