Medical Bills in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Medical bills are one of the most common types of debt that is discharged in bankruptcy. Both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 can discharge these debts. In Chapter 7, the debt will be eliminated completely. In Chapter 13, the debts will be paid off through a payment plan, but it may be a very small portion. At the end of that repayment plan, the remaining medical debt is discharged.
