Does Aetna Cover a Tummy Tuck

I had such an easy time with Aetna covering the lap band surgery...was wondering if anyone who has Aetna knows if they cover the Tummy Tuck or not?

    I had a pretty easy time with Aetna covering my lap band, however, a tummy tuck is not so easy. They only cover a panniculectomy, not a tummy tuck and even with that, you have to have documentation of rashes, treatment, etc. Your pannus also has to hang to a certain level below your pubis. I just gave up and decided to pay out of pocket.
