surgery Insurance?
.,so my insurance wont pay for my surgery and I am self paying . I am going through a center of Excellence hosptial for this surgery the doctor I originally had chosen left and the new Doctor does not have in place any surgery insurance incase something happens . not sure what to do at htis point. I have done all the steps and have saved up almost all of the money , have a few thousand to go.. would I be able to go to another doctor at this point and not have to do all of the steps over again? I am really comfortalbe with this new doctor and he has great references / been doint this a long time and he is one of the few that does the robotic surgery.
advice please and thanks

I would call around to other surgery centers and ask. All the notes should be sent to your new provider without a problem. the problem would be if they are outdated or if the new provider wants to do a different test. i dont even know if my surgeon has insurance like that. its never come up before. even if he doesnt have it maybe the hospital does. i guess you have to decide how big of a deal it is for you.
good luck
