Question:
Has anyone gotten approval for gastric bypass surgery using BCBS Empire Cobra?

Doesn't cobra have to honor the same benefits as the coverage you are continuing with (BCBS Empire)?    — Lisa T. (posted on June 5, 2007)

Yes BC/BS Cobra does covered the surgery and you can be approved. A friend of mines actually has the BC/BS cobra plan and had his surgery a month ago. I work for an Medical insurance company and Cobra is just a continuation on your health benefits the same rules apply as tho you had the plan thru your employer. Hope this helps.
