Here’s a question on a new topic we just became aware of. It seems there is a wave of garnishment lawsuits by hospitals against patients who can’t pay E R deductibles right away. We know the latest FICO rules allow paid medical collections to be removed from credit reports upon request. However, a court case, such as this article on kake.com, would seem to fall in the public information area, like a bankruptcy. The article was less than a week old. But we are wondering if anyone has any info, insight. We try to help renters online with advice, including credit. (Helps lease apps get approved.) We would like to have valuable information to share. Any insights much appreciated:))
