Default Estimate on cost of a tummy tuck?

I'm sure this varies from region to region, surgeon to surgeon, etc, but I was wondering what the rough cost for a tummy tuck is, assuming insurance won't cover it.

From the small amount of research I've done so far, it looks like insurance will only cover a TT if the pannus hangs below the pubus, right? If that is the case, I have no hope of insurance paying for it.
