If surgery is the best option for managing your pain or orthopedic condition, here are some key steps to prepare:

• Pre-Surgical Checkup: You'll likely need a physical exam and review of your medical history within 30 days of surgery.

• Insurance Coverage: Confirm if your insurance approves and covers the planned surgery.

• Recovery Planning: If a longer recovery is expected, discuss short-term disability with your employer and ensure all medical paperwork is complete.

Preparing for Surgery Checklist

By following these pre- and post-surgery steps, you'll be well on your way to a safe and speedy recovery!

Before Surgery:

1. Medications: Discuss with your doctor whether to continue any current medications.

2. Fasting: Ask your doctor if fasting is required before surgery.

3. Transportation: Arrange for a ride to and from the surgery location.

4. Support System: Plan for assistance at home. Consider having someone stay with you for the day of surgery and potentially a few days following.

5. Smoking: Quitting smoking is highly recommended for a faster recovery. If quitting is difficult, aim to cut back significantly before surgery.
