That depends on the state that you live in. It also depends on the specific plan within the Blue Cross Blue Shield plan offerings that you're asking about.

I suggest contacting the carrier either online or by phone and find out. A good broker can also answer your question.

Since insurance coverage varies greatly, not just by company but by plan, the only sure way to find out if you are covered is to contact your insurance company.
