Most likely Medicare will not cover this procedure, you may contact Medicare and see if they will pre-authorize the procedure based on the systemic disease (cancer) and the need for a prosthesis to return normal functionality of chewing.

No, the provider must document clearly each day what was done and each day needs to be signed off on.
