**Yes, rhinoplasty for a deviated septum is often covered by insurance.** A deviated septum can cause breathing difficulties, chronic nasal congestion, and recurrent sinus infections. Rhinoplasty, a surgical procedure to correct a deviated septum, is considered a medically necessary treatment in these cases.<\/p>\n

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is often associated with cosmetic procedures to enhance the appearance of the nose. However, when performed to correct a deviated septum, rhinoplasty falls under functional or reconstructive surgery and is thus covered by insurance.<\/p>\n
