Legal Question in Insurance Law in Florida

Is this legal? Or is the Neurosurgeon guitly?

Is it legal for the Neurosurgeon to accept BC/BS insurance, get

approved, and then cancel the surgery at the last moment, and

forcing us to sign a Letter of Protection? He could have done

it months, weeks, or days ealier, and we would have had

reasonable time to find another surgeon?
