Pre-admission Testing. Charges incurred by an employee or dependent in connection with pre-admission testing ordered by a physician will be covered as hospital in-patient expenses provided such tests arerelated to the performance of scheduled surgery in connection with a confirmed hospital admission, and (i) the person involved is subsequently admitted to the hospital as a resident in-patient unless the scheduled confinement is cancelled or postponed because of the unavailability of a bed or a change in his condition which precludes surgery or (ii) the surgery is performed in an out-patient facility (which may be an ambulatory surgical center) unless there is a change in the patient's condition which precludes surgery.
