  13. Hi everyone, i will be enrolled in nj bcbs epo plus program after 10-15 for $280 a month. 1) has anyone else used this insurance to cover vst? 2) did they approve? 3) where there any co payments? So far when you call horizon the reps just ask that you meet the requirements. Ty

  15. Hey all, has anyone purchased individual health insurance and been successfully approved (after 6mo nut classes and pre op testing). I live in new jersey, and will be purchasing horizon plan. Im just scared because its individual and not *** i wont get approved.
