    If you look on page 56 of your Medicare and You book there is a list of things that Medicare will not cover like Long-term care or custodial care, routine dental or eye care, dentures, acupuncture, hearing aids and exams for fitting them and yes cosmetic surgery is also not covered. With that being said if your doctor find that’s it is medically necessary to perform the reduction to elevate pressure from the spinal column that is causing you sever back pain, then it may be covered but you need to check with your doctor and get his professional opinion.
