Insurance Fraud Involving Non-Jews
Question
Hello and blessings.
My wife has private health insurance through her workplace. The insurance company belongs to non-Jews in the United States. I am a kollel avrech, and now our 5-year-old daughter needs to have two fillings done, maybe three, in her teeth. As is known, these treatments cost thousands of shekels (the health fund is not relevant...).
Is there any basis for leniency, that we could ask them to write my wife's name on the receipt/invoice for the dental treatment, and in this way receive a full reimbursement?
Answer
Hello and blessings.
This is theft from a non-Jew, and it is forbidden.
