Blue Cross – Blue Shield Coverage and Medicare

[Manny]

Here is an excerpt from article on the internet dated 2004. ” Clinica Bíblica , in downtown San José, is now affiliated with the Blue Cross-Blue Shield network. By 2005 they expect to be affiliated with Medicare.” Does anyone kmow for a fact if the Clinica is affilated BCBS and now with Medicare?

Thanks,
Manny

As for BCBS or United Health, they will only cover emergency care. Cima also makes mention on their website, when I e-mailed the billing dept. at Cima strangely no reply was given. But both companies informed me that only emergency care is covered.

Holab,

Thanks for your research on question.

Bc/BS of Michigan has informed us that they’ll cover “unforseen events” outside the U.S. but only for U.S. residents. I think this can vary by plan, so if you have Blue Cross/Blue Shield coverage you should check your plans’s specifics.
