Its been a few years since I did infant care, but the law used to be that newborns were automatically covered by their parents' insurance for the first 30 days of life. That gives the parents time to contact their insurance company and get the baby added to the policy. Maybe they do it differently now. As long as they make the coverage retroactive to birth, I guess it doesn't really matter.
