Each insurance company is different but most require that you are under 180 pounds, larger than a DD, and have tried physical therapy for upper back and shoulder discomfort and have not had relief from the back pain.
The first one is to lose weight. The second one, a consultation with an ASAPS plastic surgeon, and then, blood tests, Xray and evaluation with the cardiologist.
