If the BT module is a certified BT module not needing SAR, then, while the host 
may not need to pass part 15C requirements, it will still need to pass any 
digital device requirements in part 15B for unintentional radiators.
If the module is not certified, but the transmitter is being certified in the 
host device, this then means the host and BT are subject to two sections of 
part 15.  That being, the transmitter is subject to 15C requirements, and the 
digital part of the device is subject to 15B class B requirements if it is a 
device that could be used in the home.  IF it is strictly an office or 
professional environment, then the BT transmitter would need to meet 15C 
requirements, but the digital device would meet the limit requirements of 15B 
class A requirements.
