Medical costs are a fact of life. And even if you have health insurance, there’s the deductible and items insurance doesn’t cover. If you’re like most people, living paycheck to paycheck, medical debt can make it very difficult to keep the bills paid.
Can Medical Bills Be Discharged Through Bankruptcy?
Yes. Similarly to credit cards or personal loans, medical bills are considered unsecured debt and are eligible for discharge in both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 filings.
In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, medical debt is usually wiped out completely within a few months. In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the remaining balance may be discharged at the end of the plan.

How Can an Attorney Help with Medical Debt Relief?
When your financial future is at stake, having a knowledgeable lawyer on your side can make all the difference. Below are some important ways that our firm can assist with medical debt relief:
- Legal guidance. Medical debt discharge involves detailed paperwork and strict deadlines. Your lawyer can assist with these complex filings and help you submit required documents on time to prevent delays or dismissals.
- Halting creditor harassment. Filing for bankruptcy triggers an automatic stay that prevents creditors from calling, writing, suing, or garnishing your wages. Your attorney can make sure the stay is properly implemented.
- Protecting your assets. We have a deep understanding of state and federal bankruptcy laws to identify potential exemptions that protect your home, car, retirement funds, and other valuable property from being sold to pay creditors.
- Debt analysis and strategy. Our attorneys can meticulously review your medical bills and debts to determine the best course of action and employ a suitable strategy for your legal situation.
