Employer/COBRA Insurance 30k Labor and delivery bill

Location: Baltimore My girlfriend had our son at Mercy Hospital in Baltimore. We’ve been going there the whole pregnancy no issues. We ended up getting a bill for 30k and they told us her insurance didn’t cover anything. She’s on her mom’s insurance plan which is blue cross Oklahoma. Apparently somewhere in the plan it states grandkids labor isn’t covered. Nobody told us or warned us the entire time we went there. Is there anything we can do or any legal action that can be taken? I understand we should’ve read into it more but we had no idea that was a thing.

My post got removed, is there anything legal I can do? Thank you

What did the insurance rep say when your wife called to inquire about coverage?
