Health insurance sucks but they do have some obligations especially when you or your company is paying for a service.

I ditto all of the above, too. Fight. I did and got my surgery approved and then I fought some more when BC did not pay for it.
Do not give up and throw up your hands and throw in the towel.
I don't know your exact circumstances but there are resources out there to help you.

That is very interesting about what my insurance company told me. I will need to check the policy book to see if it specifies anything regarding denying coverage if I paid out-of-pocket for the surgery. I honestly can't afford it anyway!
