I was supposed to have an operation done on my bunion 4/30/14 but they cancelled my procedure at the last moment after I had seen Dr. H Hewett 2 times and had already purchased crutches, walking boot, pain pilss. The lab work was done and the pre-op for the operation was done. The reason they gave was that the insurance did not pay enough to cover the hard ware needed for the operation which was $2400. I had contacted my insurance about that and they told me that it was supposed to be covered. When I told them I would pay the $2400. they told me that I could not because it was illegal to charge for something that was covered. The only reasen they cancelled was that the insurance company told them that it was illigal because the Docter and the Surgery Center had never mentioned that fact to me before.
