Bankruptcy and Medical Debt
Bankruptcies resulting from unpaid medical debt will affect nearly 2 million people this year. Medical debt is the main reason for bankruptcy in the United States. Having health insurance does not necessarily protect consumers from incurring massive medical debt. Millions of adults struggle with medical debt. There are an estimated 10 million adults with health insurance who still have medical bills they can’t pay. High-deductible insurance plans require consumers to pay more out-of-pocket costs.
If you are struggling with medical debt, bankruptcy may be the solution for you. Hospital and emergency service providers cannot refuse you service in the future if you were to file for bankruptcy protection.
