C-Section and Abdominoplasty

Do insurance companies reimburse for abdominoplasty preformed during c-sections?  Are there any surgeons in Wisconsin that preform the procedure?

Abdominoplasties are usually performed for cosmetic purposes.  I know of no insurance companies that cover cosmetic surgery - they always explicitly exclude it.  Check with your Ob-Gyn for a referral to a plastic surgeon.
