Can I get coverage while traveling outside of Louisiana?

Asked 3 months ago
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana typically provides coverage for its members while traveling outside the state, including internationally. However, the specifics of coverage can vary based on the individual plan. Generally, emergency medical services are covered, and members may have access to a network of providers outside of Louisiana. It is important for travelers to understand their plan benefits, including any limitations or exclusions related to coverage when outside the home state. Additionally, some plans may have restrictions on non-emergency services or might require prior authorization before certain treatments are received outside of Louisiana. Members are encouraged to be aware of any urgent care facilities or hospitals that are part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield network in their travel location. For a thorough understanding of individual coverage options while traveling, it is advisable to review the insurance policy details available on the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana website. This resource is beneficial for determining exactly what is covered and for obtaining any necessary contact information.
