What happens if there are medical complications?
Canadian hospitals treat an emergency regardless of insurance status and bill afterwards. A caesarean, a longer admission, or neonatal intensive care raises the hospital's bill substantially, and that bill is yours. «BUSINESS INPUT: what Maple does when a complication arises, and what if anything is covered»
