Their out of pocket maximum was likely no more than $10k, if that.

In the US, medical insurance out of pocket maximums don't mean it's the most you can pay.

I've had years where according to the insurance company accounting my out of pocket has been less than $1000, but according to bills I actually had to pay my out of pocket was close to $10K.
