Indeed. But there's still no way anyone is going to convince me that they're not a piece of shit company for not offering any assurances a week afterwards. She shouldn't need to worry about ANY of that while she's in the damn hospital.

The company may just be following basic legal advice of just don't say anything and let insurance and lawyers do their work. It wouldn't make sense for the company to jump up and start writing checks, insurance will cover it but they have to go by the policy. Somewhere in the policy it might say it won't reimburse the company anything they give, but will only give it to the person injured.

You're making a hell of a lot of assumptions here. As u/rx_bandit90 said - there is a process for dealing with situations like this. All we know is the family said they opened a gofund me - they shouldn't even need one. You could just as rationally assume they're trying to profit off her misfortune while planning the lawsuit.
