If you’re not from the US, it would also be far easier for you to simply default on your debt. Actually I’m curious how medical debt is even enforced for non-citizens. Related, I have completely separate credit scores in the UK (resident) and US (citizen). I’m sure the bureaus would like to change that, but there is no system that lets them know I’m the same person.
- aksss 7y agoI have a good friend that did that. Was a legal resident, accumulated tens of thousands in medical bills due to emergency services coming out of an elective surgery. He just moved back home (out of country). He’s not been pursued. They called his domestic residence multiple times but after being told he left the country and nobody knows where, they stopped.
- ThrustVectoring 7y agoInternational legal cases are extremely expensive to prosecute - unless they know you have plenty of money and the amount in question is well into the 5-digit range, they'll probably just cut their losses.
