Medicare's policy --regarding how Medicare reimburses surgeons for adhesiolysis procedures -- was the reason I did not have surgery in Scranton, PA. I hope I have answered your concerns.
How LUCKY you are to be able to have your surgery done there!!!

Helen, I think I remember you having surgery in Pa. in 2000' and you stated that your pain never went away. Did you talk to the surgeons about this? Did you have extensive adhesions? As you know, I am scheduled in May for surgery in Pa. and I am praying that my pain will go after I heal from surgery. Kel
