This is what I've done so far.
I've talked with my insurance and company HR insurance administrator. They wanted a pre-auth before they would discuss covering a foreign surgery. When the Mobi-C cleared 2-level approval I found a doctor that could perform that surgery and requested a consult and then pre-auth from him. The procedures have been approved stating that they are medically necessary for me. I hope to discuss this with my HR rep tomorrow.
