Medical Debt

Summary

The bill rewrites the definition of “extraordinary collection action” and creates a list of prohibited collection practices for medical creditors and debt collectors. It aims to protect patients from aggressive debt‑sale arrangements and from actions like wage garnishment, property liens, or threats of arrest. The changes would apply to any licensed health‑care facility that bills patients for care.
