Thanks to people like Craig Antico, the crushing blow of medical debt is having less effect. Craig’s nonprofit organization, RIP Medical Debt, buys medical debt portfolios from hospitals and physician groups with donated money to alleviate the debt of those who simply can’t pay. You might not be shocked that nearly half of all GoFundMe campaigns have been related to medical bills, but you might be pleasantly surprised how far $1 can go toward abolishing medical debt when organizations like RIP Medical Debt become involved. And don’t miss Craig's surprise gift to the patient community near the end of the episode!
