Would most health insurance pay to have an abscessed tooth pulled if the patient is already in the hospital?

My brother has a brain abscess that has been tied to an abscessed tooth. He needs to have the tooth pulled, but couldn't it be done while he's in the hospital and cheaper?

It's a gray area. You would think they should but that doesn't mean they will. Best to call the insurance company and find out from them. Sorry to hear about his troubles.
