Deb, Kathy,

I thought this might interest the both of you.

Resolution 119 Coverage of Children's Deformities, Disfigurement and

Congenital Defects - The AMA clearly outlines the difference

between " cosmetic " and " reconstructive " in Resolution 119 - as you

can see in this document it is clearly states that " Cosmetic surgery

(treatment) is performed to reshape normal structures of the body in

order to improve the patient's appearance and self-esteem. " Whereas

Reconstructive surgeries (treatments) can be " performed on abnormal

structures to restore them to a more normal state. "
