Has anyone been approved by medicare?

I have an appt. with the surgeon next week. He is a medicare approved doctor and accepts medicare. I called medicare and they said there is no Pew-approval. You have to wait until the surgery is over and submit it. At that time they will tell you if it is approved or denied. I can't take that chance. My secondary insurance (BC/BS)said they only pay if medicare pays. Anyone had any experience with this?Thanks..MJ
