I would imagine that she paid privately in Cyprus. However 'unacceptable' this is, the babies now have to be cared for.
The problem with 'billing' her is that if she (and her OH) end up bankrupt, they may be a bigger burden on the State (which does happen in many countries). A civilised country would not allow sub-standard care for those babies.
As I do not use my real name, or say where I live, I feel I can disclose that I have dealt with families with similar stories (although fewer babies). I had one family where the babies ended up taken into care because the parents couldn't cope, and a few who became homeless because of the costs they had incurred.
Whilst there are medical facilities anywhere in the world that will perform this procedure, and who do no checks on families' ability to cope financially, emotionally or socially, there is very little that can be done to prevent this.
I do agree that 'no publicity' might help, but of course, we have press freedom!
