Does Health Insurance Cover Keloid Removal? 
Health insurance may cover keloid removal if connected in some way with another covered event . For example , if you required surgery to address a serious health issue and the keloids formed from the surgical scar , your policy will probably cover the removal . Likewise if the scarring resulted from an accident where you sought treatment within a prescribed time frame , then the procedure may be covered . Most plans will not pay benefits for any purely cosmetic procedure .
