Sometimes: Depending on your height weight and symptoms (pain in back and neck) insurance may pay for your breast reduction the other component is how much breast tissue there is to be removed. If enough is not removed insurance wont pay for the surgery.

In most cases...: In most cases, insurance will reimburse the majority of the cost of the procedure as long as a certain amount of breast tissue is removed. On average, a removal of at least 500cc of breast tissue from each breast in order to be considered a covered procedure. Reductions used to relieve neck and back pain associated with large breasts is considered reconstructive surgery.

Unfortunately, most insurance providers do not cover breast reduction procedures unless there is a medical need for having one. However, you can look for clinics that offer flexible payment plans to make it easier for you to avail of the surgery. Contact your insurance provider to see if they cover the procedure.
