babe wake up your surgery isn’t done yet but we can’t afford anymore anesthesia
Tweet that says “Blue Cross Blue Shield will no longer cover anesthesia for the full length of certain surgeries in Connecticut, New York, and Missouri. 

If a surgery exceeds a specific duration, anesthesia costs for the additional time will not be covered.”
