Call the number for customer service on the back of your insurance card or go to their web site.
I have regular BCBS (not federal) and I was able to get the actual "printout" of the policy guidelines for WLS - it was so helpful.

I have Federal BCBS, I had a BMI of 39 and was diabetic.  I have no problem getting my surgery.  From reading my brochure it looks like the requirements are the same now.

Good Luck
