Discharge Medical Debt

 

What can credit card companies do outside of bankruptcy/ in state court?

 

 

  • Medical debt creditors have the option to seize your tax refunds through the SC Department of Revenue or apply to garnish your paycheck (most commonly EMS).

How are credit card debts handled in bankruptcy?

 

  • In Chapter 7, you may get a "discharge" or complete elimination of your medical debt.

  • If you file for Chapter 13, you must begin making payments on your medical debt at the 1% level. Potential increases are based upon your assets and income.
