    Well the other part of it is paying for illegal immigrants to get a procedure when citizens don’t get that.

      Citizens also qualify for Medi-Cal, I’m not sure where you got the idea they don’t.

      The government shouldn’t be paying for cosmetic surgery at all. This is my main concern with universal coverage which I support. They won’t control the cost.

        Do you mean elective cosmetic surgery or cosmetic surgery in general? I certainly want my public health care to cover people disfigured in accidents, for example.

          That isn’t considered cosmetic. That’s reconstructive.

            Then GAC isn’t cosmetic, it’s preventative care.
