    Most don't. And even if you find one, they will probably have a waiting period or some other exclusion. (ie: pre-existing conditions) After all, if wouldn't be cost effective for them if they paid out thousands after you only paid a premium or two. :(

    My surgery was covered by BCBSTX. The policy was through my husband's employer so maybe the coverage was different.

    Did you throw a fit about it to them? They misled you... Wonder if you can fight getting the correct coverage or getting out of the one they gave you
