Bankruptcy only will discharge debts in existence at the time of filing. Therefore, if you have not had the surgery before filing, you cannot discharge the debt once the surgery is performed.
You should consult a local bankruptcy attorney and an employment law attorney to determine what your options are. Most bankruptcy attorneys offer a free initial consultations to determine if you qualify for bankruptcy, and to determine if bankruptcy is appropriate. An employment law attorney will be able to determine if workers compensation should cover your surgery.
