I have a question about that also. Who sets up your cardio rehab? I don't know if that would be the surgeon or my cardiologist.

You need a physician's referral for cardiac rehab. Don't leave the hospital without one. Typically most insurance plans will have a copay for each session.

I will be having my surgery at Mayo....long distance from home. I'm glad to know to get rehab order for cardiac rehab before I leave....as I'm not feeling my cardiologist at home is supportive of me not staying in that system!
