Question by quick_sand: House paid off. Newly aquired major medical bills. Is bankruptcy the only way to go now????
Recent medical emergency, resulting in a trip to the ER, before and after a trip to a Cardiac Hospital has shifted my husband and myself from being debt free in less than two years, to having now tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills that no way we can pay, we just don’t make enough. Any advice in regards to filing bankruptcy, can they make us sell our home and become homeless. (live rural, so value isn’t like Florida or something, most we could get is between 15-22 thousand for the property. Any advice would be so greatly appreciated…..
If my home was in Miami, it would be worth 40 grand, not here in rural America, home equity loan wouldn’t even dent the medical bills!
you can’t get medicare/medicade as easily as you think. I qualify for NOTHING….State of Tennesse canceled its TennCare program, so hundreds of thousands of us including 93,000 critically ill patients have no health insurance anymore!

They can’t make you sell your house. Speak to an attorney about it. There are different types of bankruptcies.
