What may work (if he has credit and can cover the lowered amount) is "I can borrow enough to cover the Medicare rate for this and pay it now if that will cover it in full. If that won't cover it then I'm not going to borrow from friends and family when I'll still be paying you and never be able to pay them back."

Not to mention the fact that he could buy 2-3 houses for the price of the medical bill (Indiana is cheap) .... and his credit wasn't great even though he didn't carry much debt. His way out was bankruptcy.
