Insurance And Postponing



Recommended Posts

Hoping someone can might know the answer. I was about as far along as possible last wed. in hospital and literally ready for surgery. My surgeon and the anestig. where speaking with me and my wife when I mentioned that I was having muscle cramps. Due to me being on a statin and the muscle cramps the surgeon felt that this elecvated my risk of complications for surgery so surgery was canceled until this wed. and I was taken off the statin(crestor).

Here I am two days away again and I thought I would sail thru past week as I had already had dry run(lol) but has not happened. I can't get out of my mind maybe last week was a sign I should not do this now. I was wondering if I postpone will my insurance cover me for this in future.

If you are postponing for a little over a week, then you won't have to resubmit anything. Surgeries get postponed all the time. If you put it off more a month or more, then you have to go through the process again. Unless something drastic changes in your paperwork, there is zero chance they will deny you the second time.
