[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had my reduction done by Stephen Baker at Medstar Georgetown in 2019. I also have BCBS Federal, and it was fully covered. Dr. Baker was wonderful and was able to get everything approved through insurance. I only paid the surgery co-pay.

Your age?[/quote]

I was 36 at the time of consult and 37 when I had the surgery[/quote]

Completely different scenario than OPs daughter.

They are going to advise that she wait until she stops growing.  And insurance is going to want a documented history of back issues that would justify a reduction.

Insurance companies decisions are still heavily weighted toward dealing with an problem after it is a problem instead of taking a preventive route.[/quote]Can we let the topic of will it or won’t it be covered go now? OP has been clear she believes the surgery will be covered, if it’s not, well that’s an OP problem, not a you problem. Anyone else considering this has been sufficiently warned as well. [/quote]
