    Default Lien by a Hospital in Texas

    In Texas, can a hospital put a lien on your vehicle for medical expenses owed to them? What about if they have turned it over to a collection agency -- can thecollection agency place the lien?

    Thanks for any help!

    Before they could seize or put a lien on any assets they would have to sue you in court & get a judgment against you. They could then only seize non-exempt assets. In Tx. a vehicle is an exempt asset.

    I am sure they except payments, and just pay the minimum you can.

    Most hospitals will agree to payment plans, but that does not mean that people are free to fashion their own without working through the hospital.
