When insurance pays in the Los Angeles area
For lids that block vision. This side of eyelid surgery is kept apart from the cosmetic ranking.
The rule
Medicare and private insurers pay when sagging upper-lid skin or a low lid blocks the top of your vision. A visual field test and photographs show the loss before the operation is approved. In the Los Angeles area, Medicare claims go to Noridian Healthcare Solutions, LLC, whose rule is L34194.
What it pays
Medicare's average payment to the surgeon in the Los Angeles area is $867 for an upper blepharoplasty and $946 for a ptosis repair (2024). The surgery center or hospital is paid separately. You pay your deductible and coinsurance; any cosmetic part of the same operation is billed to you.
