Confused & worried

HEY EVERYONE!

OK, SO MY SURGERY IS SCHEDULED FOR AUGUST 27,2010. I HAVE BEEN APPROVED FROM MY INSURANCE, BUT NOW I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE INSURANCE SAYING..

EFFECTIVE DATE: AUGUST 30,2010

EXPIRATION DATE: AUGUST 31,2010

I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT MEANS. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND IT SAYS THAT I HAVE TO HAVE MY SURGERY ON AUGUST 30TH, NOT BEFORE OR AFTER THAT DATE. IS THAT CORRECT? MY SURGERY IS ALREADY SCHEDULED FOR AUGUST 27TH THOUGH. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I SHOULD BE WORRIED OR NOT? I ALREADY CALLED MY INSURANCE AND THEY ARE GONE FOR THE DAY.:)

I asked an insurance question on this board and no one was able to answer so i suggest you just keep calling till you talk to a LIVE person...i did and was able to get the correct answers i needed...Good luck I'm gonna be banded the day b-4 u on the 26th....

Thank you zeniada! I will call them again tomorrow & get my answer. Good luck on your journey! Let us know how it goes. Im looking forward to hearing from you!

I would say that's a mistake because insurance usually gives the expiration date of one year out. Call insurance...
