Right away. They can tell you way before you have surgery

My insurance company denied me one week before surgery so I'm upset but my dr is appealing their decision. I pray your insurance approves your surgery.

Thank you all for your input. I can not wait 2-3 weeks to call as my tenative surgery date is November 3rd. My surgeons office said we should here by Wednesday the 19th. I am going to call Wednesday to the surgeon to see if they have heard anything, if nothing , I am going to call insurance company

Called Monday, insurance had paperwork but normally takes at least 5 days for a decision so I have to call tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed
