WILL SHORT TERM HEALTH INSURANCE PAY?

Has anyone had any experience with short term health insurance? I wanted to know if this insurance will pay for a breast reduction? It is medically needed. The insurance period is 6 months and the plan states out-patient surgery is covered and that is what the surgery will be. Any advice is really appreciated. Thanks
--------------------
The second answer is correct - there's no way breast reduction will be covered by short term insurance. It was a 'pre-existing condition' (assuming there is a medical need) and so will be specifically excluded. Also, a breast reduction really isn't an outpatient procedure, or at least it shouldn't be! It's serious invasive surgery, not something that can (or should) be rushed through in an afternoon. If you really, really need one you'll need to get saving I'm afraid... though hopefully you can find an alternative less drastic way of learning to get along with your girls! Best of luck! :)
