I gave birth to our daughter in a SA hospital. I had complications resulting in a long and expensive hospital stay for both of us.
Because our insurance refused to cover much of it due to semantics we were held to be responsible for a huge amount.
In the end after battling the insurance company and the hospital and their attorney through the insurance commissioner’s office, thankfully the insurance company paid. The SA attorney was a shark. I will never give them any money.

Do you think that you should not have had to pay?

It took my nephew five years to pay off his son’s NICU stay.

This sounds like the insurance company was using a legal dodge to keep from paying. You said, "semantics"...the words of the contract?

It sounds like the insurance company SHOULD have paid.

It sounds like the Salvation Army lawyer knew that.

It sounds like the Salvation Army lawyer got the insurance company to pay, the thing you've agreed that the insurance company was supposed to do in the first place.

Do you still pay the insurance company?
