Estate responsible for sister's medical bills?

In: Health, Debt Responsibility, Medical Billing and Coding [Edit categories]

Answer:

Yes, the sister's estate is responsible for paying the debts, including the medical bills of the deceased. If a relative has co-signed any paperwork regarding medical procedures, they may be held liable. If they hope to inherit a house, they may have to pay the bills to avoid the house being sold to pay the debts.
