Jason....You are truly a rarity, most people are not getting covered for this. If fact, about 99% of people who i've read that went overseas for surgery are not.
If you would, could you verify for the forum if you have international coverage for BCBS or not, that makes all the difference in the world....Some have full coverage for overseas work performed, some just have emergency coverage.
Did you get the forms from Dr. Clavel, did he submit the initial hospital codes for you or did you have to get that information and do it all on your own?
