How do I get kansas medicaid to pay for abdominoplasty?

abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure in which excess skin and fat in the abdominal area is removed and the abdominal muscles are tightened.\nAbdominoplasty is a cosmetic procedure, I don't think that your insurance will cover it, unless you get a report from the doctor that they surgery is needed for medical purposes rather than cosmetic.

On the back of the Medicaid card there is an 800 number.  If you call it they will mail you a listing of dentist that accept medicaid in your area.  In Kansas City ,  Missouri  you can go to The Kansas City Dental College or Swope Health Center

Get tummy tuck surgery in India.Cosmetic Surgery is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges cosmetic surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance.\n\nThey also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your cosmetic surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.If you still havent got your surgery done,you are better off getting it done in India.\n\nMy cousin got her tummy tuck surgery in India throught the forerunners healthcare .SHe is more than very happy with the results.She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.hope this helps \n\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com

i am a SC resident and i have insurance through SC medicaid  i fall into a low income bracket and cannot afford private medical insurance(PMI)  if you cannot afford PMI you can apply for state or federal medicaid and medicare programs at your local department of health and human services, department of health and environmental control, or department of social services for your county.   if you are unable to contact them in person many have websites or will even arrange transportaion for those without a ride.   they often have handicap accessible transportion as well.   feel free to put me on your watch list if you need help with a south carolina facility

There's information here on donating a body to the University of Kansas Medical Center.  It includes contact information.  You could contact the University and see what they have to say:\n\n http://wichita.kumc.edu/research/assets/bodyDonorInfo.pdf

Free -  the company that makes it will provide it for free if you meet their income guidelines - go to needymeds.com and look for the link . You will have to have your doc or a nurse in their office fill out some paperwork for you, but it will be worth it in the long run.

Apparently NY has expanded Medicaid and is relying on counties to pay for it. \n\nThat must really suck!

per area like abdomen about $2,500-$3,500.......i had it done but don't recommend it unless you are active and have your diet under control.  otherwise you will gain the weight back in your problem areas.  everything boils down to proper diet and regular exercise.

A county hospital is your best bet. We med students and internists and residents are always available to help. There is this thing called ATP where you pay 80 dollars and everything else is paid for (i.e. lab work, diagnostic imaging, etc).

Please don't tell me you're in the O.R. and you need a tip to perform major surgery!  It must be an HMO.\n\nGood luck finding a clue.

You need to get on medicare and medicade, Honey. Also, you might try posting on www.favorville.com. It's a site where people ask for and do favors for each other. Please apply for medicare if you need it. Also, if you need to go to the emergency room, they have to help you, insurance or not. God bless, and you're in my prayers.

Yes, Medicaid can cover it, however, the patient has to be willing to maintain a certain lifestyle for 6 months to 1 year to be approved.  These changes might include: not drinking any soda pop, no alcohol, etc.  Good luck & GOD bless.
