Hi!

I have been in the plans of getting surgery for more than 4 years.  Finally I went to Dra. Santos in Cayey and they told me that soon they were going to start making the surgery in PR with Medicare.  After a few months I called again and they told me that they are not yet making the surgery because the doctor is not affiliated to Medicare.

I would like to know if someone knows about surgeries in PR made with Medicare as primary insurance.  I also have Triple S as secunday insurance.

The thing is that I live in Egypt and I came to PR to make the surgery, stay for the recuperation and return to Egypt where is my husband.  We estimated a year for all this.  It's been 1 1/2 years and I even don't have a concrete answer about Medicare and the surgery here in PR.  I have been thinking may be need to move to USA and find a dr there, but I'm afraid my economical status won't permit it.

I need help, advice and/or info!
