[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have Kaiser and they told me nothing cosmetic will be covered. We are definitely looking at out of pocket expenses, so at this point I'm just wanting to find the best plastic surgeon with a lot of pediatric experience so she has minimal scarring, etc.

It might not be hard for a plastic surgeon to label the mole "suspicious". I also was willing to pay out of pocket for the gnarly mole on DS's face, but when doc insisted on a pathology report, then insurance kicked in. [/quote]

Kaiser is going to be tricky because providers are encouraged to not upcode since they are employed by the plan. 
It's much more likely that a provider billing to Blue Cross (for example) will code something benign as "potentially malignant."[/quote]

I have an appt with our Kaiser dermatologist the end of this month but I know she won’t do anything cosmetic. I just want to hear her recommendation before committing to the plastic surgery route. We have a consult with a plastic surgeon this week too.
