Multiple lipoma removal

:Qfl: Question

I have multiple familial lipomatosis with 15 small lipomas that I know about currently. I have never gotten any removed before, but I am looking into getting as many taken out as possible. Unfortunately, I have heard that insurance will not cover the surgury since it is not deemed medically necessary. Can someone that has medical experience in Quebec tell me if this is accurate or not, so that I can avoid wasting my time dealing with the public healthcare system and just head straight to a private clinic? Follow up question: can anyone estimate how much it would cost to get this many lipomas removed by a general surgeon?
