Retroactive billing for Medicare

Text:
I have been waiting over a year for my Medicare PTAN number and just
received it for a new O&P practice. They are stating that I can only
retroactively bill back to the date of the approval, which was about two
weeks ago.
My questions are:
1. Has this happened to anyone else who opened a new practice?
2. Were you able to appeal the decision?
3. If so, how long did it take?
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
