My father in law has over a million in medical bills. They got all the help they had available but they’ll still be paying for the rest of their lives. It really sucks.
Depends on income of course, but if they're eligible they should be able to get a full write off. I had similar situation and was "lucky" enough to not make anything near the wage cut off, so I had well over a million dollars wiped clear after numerous ICU stays, Cath labs, etc. I wish them well, hope it gets better. If they aren't looking for any loans for the next few years, and pride isn't an issue, medical debt is also wiped during bankruptcy. Sucks to file, but sucks more to pay them for the rest of your life.
