    Ya this is kind if a unique situation and I went through something similar having had twins in NICU, they bill everything under your childs name and if that baby was in there for several weeks you can really run up a huge bill. It creates a huge mess of paperwork afterwards. This seems to be an instance of a foreign insurance company never having had this happen before, hopefully they update their policies to have this covered by default.
