Non-Hospital Providers Flood Medical Debt Lawsuits
Description
In Connecticut, a shift in medical debt lawsuits has left patients struggling. Non-hospital providers now file over eighty percent of these cases, with most suits under three thousand dollars. Patients face harsh consequences, including wage garnishments and home liens. Providers argue they need to collect to stay afloat, but critics question the fairness of suing for small debts. Hospitals have reduced their suits, but non-hospital providers remain largely unregulated.
