    OK, first - are you in CA? Because in CA, Blue Cross plans are Anthem Blue Cross. There is no BCBS in CA.

    Second - the precert is something your surgeon's office gets, not something you have to do. Your surgeon's insurance coordinator gets everything together.

    I hope this helps!

    It does help. Also I'm in Maryland. My insurance is switching from uhc to bcbs anthem at the first of the year and I'm having to switch hospitals mid stream but I have it handled. I just hope the nuts are good at this new hospital
