According to a recent article from PBS there are 15 million Americans with $49 billion in unpaid medical bills in collections. And there are 100 million Americans who are working to pay off past due medical debts.
“More than any other form of financial distress or debt, medical debt is the result of bad luck, not bad behavior,” said Neale Mahoney, an economist at Stanford University who has studied the effects of medical debt throughout his career. “Nobody chooses to get sick, but we end up with a mess of medical bills.”
But it’s not exactly just bad luck that puts a person into deep medical debt. That deep medical debt can be avoided through Share HealthCare, and we will talk about it on today's program.
