Your primary care dr. will have to fill it out since your Surgeon is out of the country. If you have a spinal surgeon that will be doing follow up states side they will probably be able to fill it out as well.
Your companies HR if your with a Corporation will have the paperwork as well as Dr. instructions.
It doesn't matter if insurance pays for it or not. You are taking off work to take care of a medical situation that will cause either prolonged absence or multiple absences.
FMLA is federal so it is the same no matter what state you are in. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. I had to use FMLA 4 separate instances in the past 6 years twice for me and twice for my wife.
