How does this work, anyway? If he did fall, the insurance money only goes to the ambulance and hospital anyway. It’s not like I receive a personal check from insurance over and above the amount I paid to the hospital when I get an injury.
Or was he going to sue the restaurant? He’d have to show injury, which the hospital wasn’t going to vouch for…
Maybe he already had an injury, which he knew insurance was going to deny, so he had to invent a covered injury to get them to pay. Maybe this whole story is about the failure of health care in the US…
