It might be that you HAD to be the one to pay for it. When I hit a certain age, all the insurance cheques were made out to me, and I had to deposit them and transfer the money to my parents.

(Though this was insurance for therapy, so maybe it's different?)

Insurance wasn't involved when it came time to pay for the surgery. By then, they'd already denied the claim and the appeal, so they were paying completely out of pocket for the surgery.

Right, but it might still have to be you paying, insurance or no.
