My mother was recently involved in a bad head-on car crash on a local highway. She was alive shortly after the crash and was med-flighted to a local hospital. Unfortunately, she died within a couple hours of arriving at the hospital.
My family now has numerous medical bills arriving at the house for my mother's treatment. Currently, I have little motivation to resolve any of these bills. What happens if i just let the bills sit for a while without taking any action?
The requests for payment have been somewhat friendly to this point in time. Most of the companies seem to be probing for insurance information. A few have in big words on the bills that payment is due within 10 days of receipt. Obviously, my mother does not need a good credit history anymore so I do not care about any collections activity that might appear on her report.
