Medical Bills During COVID-19: A Review of Waived Costs and Expanded Benefits
Even in normal times, medical debt creates a financial burden for many people. Now, in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis, there are two new medically-related financial concerns to keep in mind. First, the COVID-19 crisis is fundamentally a medical crisis. So, what happens if you or a loved one comes down with the virus or is tested for it? How will those medical expenses be covered? Second, if you are already under financial pressure from a job loss or reduced income, how should you handle your medical bills, even if they aren’t related to COVID-19 at all? Let’s take a closer look at these questions and the issues surrounding them.
Resources for Military Families During COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has created panic, confusion, and economic uncertainty. These challenges can impact military families in unique ways, and military families may not know where to turn for help. Fortunately, there are resources dedicated specifically to service members, veterans, and their families. Here are some programs and service providers that can help those who are serving or have served navigate this difficult time.
Should I File for Bankruptcy?
Should I file for bankruptcy? I lost my job in 2007. I became unable to pay my credit card debts about two years later. My debts were charged off except for one that is suing me. I started working again in November 2016. An old debtor filed a judgment in 2016 and has now levied my bank account. I was unaware I was being sued until 2019 when my bank account was levied. I have very little left over each month after paying rent and bills. My debt is about $20,000 not including the one suing me, which is a little over $10,000. My main concern is this judgment. I don’t know what to do.
