When you file for bankruptcy, you can wipe away your medical debt. The law understands that people get put in difficult situations, which often leaves them with more difficult choices between their health and their finances. As a result, medical bills often pile up for people who are financially responsible.
While some debts cannot be discharged through bankruptcy, medical bills can be discharged. If you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy, your medical bills will be wiped completely clean. If you file for chapter 13 bankruptcy, you will have three to five years to pay back what you can afford. At the end of this time, your remaining medical bills will be discharged.
You may also want to consider alternatives to bankruptcy, as creditors, banks, and hospitals are often willing to work with people who have been put into a difficult situation with medical bills. Our attorneys will answer any questions you may have and help you come up with solutions.
