Questions for USA citizens who tried to get nail removal covered by health insur
« on: July 23, 2021, 02:01:53 AM »
1. Did medicaid help to cover nail removal?

2. Did your private health insurance help to cover nail removal?

3. What would be your advice for this? Get some kind of private health insurance before you do LL, do LL, then come back and use the insurance for nail removal?

Say you were doing LL in Greece or India

I’m guessing everyone realized how silly this question is and chose not respond. Insurance will not cover this in any way, shape or form

Yeah, not sure about Medicaid but I've heard of private insurance covering nail removal. You could email Dr M, Paley or Dr Assayag about that, I'm sure they could let you know if some of their patients have gotten it covered, and if so, what diagnosis code and CPT code they submitted to their insurance. Then you can call up your insurance and ask if the same codes would be covered by them.
