If your pannus is large enough and you have significant "roll", as gross as it sounds, don't be as clean as you normally would. It won't take long to get a yeast type rash. Most insurance companies will want to see that you have tried adequate hygiene, topicals, powders, and some even want to see oral anitbiotics or antifungals. You have to get a couple of them to show it's recurrent. Nair will give you a good rash if you apply it to broken skin. heard this hurts like a sunburn. Find out what criteria is in the medical policy your insurance company looks at. This will show what you need to get it covered, that is if they even have a provision for it. Hope this helps. Sue
