Question

So my insurance company told me my doctor submitted a surgery date of 1/11 until 1/13 because I will be impatient pending I get my authorization. However when I had my last meeting with my surgeon she said my surgery would be in February. Is it possible they moved up the date? Has this happened to anyone before?

It hasn't happened to me, but make sure your insurance company has the correct dates or they may not pay, I would be calling my Doctors office and get this answered quickly.

My surgeon submitted dates for October or November to get the approval, but her schedule wasn't available until December, so once they got approval they just adjusted the dates to fit the surgeon's scheduled surgery.

Yup I followed up with my doctor and that’s exactly what they did. Thank you!
