Legal Question in Workers Comp in Texas

Work Comp Surgery Approval

I got surgery approval for a spinal cord stimulator. However, the adjuster scheduled an insurance carrier dr appt 1 week prior to the surgery. My question is, can the adjuster take back the surgery approval if the biased rme dr report is unfavorable?

Thanks
