What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TX
My daughter is 18 and is not living with me or her father, she is living with her boyfriend's family. Her father provides health insurance for until she graduates from high school this summer. She required a trip to the emergency room because she thought she had broken her wrist. Is it considered fraud if they listed her father as the person financially responsible for payment without his consent? Who is legally liable for the emergency room bill? Would she be liable because she is 18 and a legal adult? Or would her father be liable because he provides the insurance. I do not think insurance information was given at the time of the emergency room visit.
