Question about Medicare and Plastic Surgery

I live in southwest Missouri. I have Medicare and TriCare for Life. Does anyone know if Medicare will pay for the hospital charges for a tummy tuck? I don't have a huge amount of excess skin to deal with, but it is enough that it bothers me. I haven't checked with a surgeon but plan to soon. I have lost about 55 pounds and am within 10 - 15 pounds of goal.
