How do I find a plastic surgeon who is willing to do pro bono or reduced cost surgery?
I had a gastric bypass 7 years ago. I lost over 150 lbs. and kept it off! I feel great with the exception of a lot of extra skin around my abd., breasts, arms and rear. My ins. refuses to cover the surgery stating that it is “cosmetic” rather than “reconstructive”. They obviously did not look at the pictures of my disfigured mid section. I am looking for a Dr. or teachin hosp., who will be interested in doing pro bono, or reduced cost surgery. In exchange I would be willing to be photographed or video taped, before, during, and after. I am a designer at a printing co. and would put together promotional piece(s), printed and mailed to a list of bariatric patients in the area or accross the country, to showcase the work. I have encountered many people who NEED these surgeries to resume normal lives, patients who are interested in having their bodies refined as well. It could probably even be written of as an advertising expense. Please advise.
Have you appealed the decision?
If you haven’t start appealing now. Bug the heck out of them. Get documentation, see other doctors and get a letter from them to your insurance company.
I wish you luck in your journey. Congrats!
