I have slight gyno from puberty. I need advice on how I can convince my
doctor and most importantly my insurance co(US Healthcare) that the surgery
is needed for medical reasons. If its cosmetic the ins. co wont cover this.
It's pretty sad that a man having an unsightly and embarrassing condition such
as gyno can't get this removed without it being considered cosmetic. Would it
help to use the emotional route. Would they cover the surgery if i was to say
that I'm suffering for depression and emotional scaring because of this condition?
Any input is greatly appriciated.
