As a general rule insurance companies do not pay for surgery related to prior cosmetic surgery.

BII diagnosis is by a process of elimination. There are over 100 symptoms reported by patients of BII.

Therefore each and every one of your complaints need to be evaluated by the that specific medical specialty.

In your case includes:

Gastroenterology

Hematology

Neurology

Rheumatology

Ophthalmology

Cardiology

Family Physician

Even with all of the above evaluations, Not sure if insurance is going to cover breast implant explant.

Removal of breast implant in patients with BII does not guarantee the reversal of the symptoms and improvement. Therefore a complete medical evaluation is warranted for your best health outcomes.
