I found that Medicare will pay for surgeries to remove skin. You HAVE to make sure that you get a surgeon who is willing and knows how to deal with Medicare. It is not an easy process and it can be a long process. I was lucky enough to have a surgeon who performed the first (of what will have to be many) surgery while we fought. Medicare approved (tentetively) at first. We were informed that only ONE proceedure at a time could be done i.e stomach, thighs, etc. and that all the billing codes must be perfect. After the surgery they denied the claim however. We had to appeal and finally won. It is not easy BUT it can be done and is being done more and more everyday.
