In Ontario, tummy tucks are not covered. They will sometimes cover what is called a panniculectomy. It's strictly the excess skin from the belly button down. There is no suturing of the muscles or moving the belly button. It's strictly chopping off the excess. The problem in Ontario with this is that very few plastic surgeons will work with OHIP and many will not do it unless you pay the difference for a full tummy tuck. The PS here has to make a case to OHIP to have it covered such as documented rashes etc. I've not heard of other provinces covering it but I know for a fact that it's not in Ontario.
