The story sounds insane. And in fairness, the insurer DID reverse itself and agree to insure the infant.

HOWEVER, there is a little more to the story:

"The company is the same insurer praised by President Barack Obama and ruling Democrats for having one of the nation's lowest Medicare reimbursement rates. The Grand Junction-based insurer grew out of an agreement by area doctors that all would accept patients using government health insurance, lowering costs."

There is no free ride.
