My only question is did the parents know they could receive a waiver?

Regardless of what could have or should have happened before, the State of Indiana is now refusing to pay for a surgery that has been succesful in 58 of 60 babies.
Should this be happening?
If it was an insurance company that was denying the coverage to the child, it would not be a precedent. I don't remember ever hearing of a state that would allow such a thing to happen.
Should baby Seth die?
