I know that many insurance companies pay for reconstruction of the breast after a mastectomy. I am not sure about after lumpectomy. However, if the surgery was disfiguring, I believe some insurances will pay for reconstruction after the initial surgery, recovery and radiation. The best way to get the answer to this is to call your specific insurance company and ask them. If you get an answer in the affirmative, I would get the person's name you spoke with and then phone your doctor's office for the follow up reconstruction surgical appointment. Your doctor's office will also validate that insurance will pay. I found an interesting article on reconstruction after lumpectomy here: http://www.wchstv.com/newsroom/healthyforlife/2144.shtml Good luck.
