Hi Kimmers,
Now that's chilling. You were pre-authorized and they can collect after they paid? Now that's a new one for me!
I am in my mid-50s. Nobody likes us old codgers.
Thank you for your time and I shall PM you.
My very best ~ Allan
Postscript: I called an insurance person at another respected LA spine surgeon's office. You're so right!! They can authorize, then deny, and yes, ask for the money back! I was told there's a 50/50 chance that they'd even pay for the hybrid part. K: You operate on me.
