Yes, in most cases, 3D areola tattooing is covered by health insurance after breast cancer surgery because the Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act (WHCRA) of 1998 mandates that plans covering mastectomies must also cover all stages of breast reconstruction, which includes the tattooing as a medically necessary and vital final step. However, the process can be complicated; to ensure coverage, you must obtain a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) from your surgeon. Since many specialists, like EMPOWERink, are out-of-network, you will typically pay out-of-pocket at the appointment and receive a superbill to submit for subsequent reimbursement, so it is essential to contact your insurance provider beforehand to confirm your plan's specific requirements and reimbursement procedure.
