For services on or after November 8, 2016, this also includes surgery to correct or repair disturbances of body composition caused by HIV associated lipodystrophy syndrome, when the HMO Blue provider determines treatment is necessary to correct, repair, or lessen the effects of HIV associated lipodystrophy syndrome. These services include (but are not limited to): reconstructive surgery, such as suction-assisted lipectomy; other restorative procedures; and dermal injections or fillers for reversal of facial lipoatrophy syndrome. Medex Choice provides coverage for these covered services to the same extent as coverage is provided for similar covered services to treat other conditions. For services not covered by Medicare, Medex Choice provides full coverage, as long as the services are furnished by an HMO Blue provider.
