    I'm in Florida and only have medicare (not medicaid) and can tell you that they do not cover plastic surgery for skin removal. I think (don't know for a fact) that if you document together with your GP and Plastic surgeon that you are suffering from rashes and other skin disease issues that there's a possible case for plastics in that instance.
