Does the surgeron have to preform the surgery where the ins. say????

On my approval for surgery it shows I will be having my surgery at my hospital which is only 6 miles away from my house But when I called the surgeons office they said I will probably have to go to my surgeron's hospital and thats approx 50 miles away. Personally I don't care where I go, but I got alot family coming in from out of state and I see big problems on the horizon because not everyone will want to stay at the hospital as long as some and some will be very tired and want to leave but can't because of the car situation.The ones that stay will be stranded. I know my family very well and they will get into a big fight about it!!! Since my surgeon is the contract wls surgeon will he have to do my surgery where the insurance says to do it?? This has me very concerned. Has anyone had problems like this with relatives or friends going back and forth to the hospital and some that want to stay for hours while others only want to stay for one hour or so. HELP!!!!!
