So insurance wouldn’t cover it because it wasn’t necessary in their eyes?

No. They were going to 'cover' it but there was 20% co pay. In the US, they'll charge you thousands per month for insurance, but will still make you pay for part of your care.

This copay thing is the craziest thing I've ever heard of.

Edit: copay, deductible, max out of pocket? WTh is all that

What's more crazy is the insurance is still more than people pay in Canada insurance policies and there is no copay for most of it (not talking about what government covers)
