I don't understand ~ Why can't SSdisability & Medicare pay for it??? Why do YOU have to pay for it? It shouldn't matter that it was pre-existing. They should pay for it anyway! Who told you that they wouldn't??
Call your SS office, and find out for sure. I'm almost POSITIVE that SS and medicare will pay for this surgery. Either that, or I'm really ignorant. Since W/C denied it, I don't see why they wouldn't pay for it. Hugs, Lee
