Why am I being billed 75k for a rhino/septoplasty when it was approved originally???

This has got to be a mistake right?

I am 22 and a college student. This wasnt a cosmetic surgery either; my nose was fractured and my septum was dislocated. Previous to surgery, I was in contact with my insurance company and had them call me directly for when my insurance approves the surgery.

​

The surgeons office even has an authorization letter which states that the services were approved, some were voided but NONE were disapproved. I paid my portion of the percentage of the full amount, which was 2,000. I am now being billed 75,000 DOLLARS AND 4,000 for anesthesia…

​

I know I have to call the insurance company but right now i am freaking out. There is NO possible way that this is accurate right???
