My question involves insurance law for the state of: Maryland
My father passed away in 1997. Today a bill collector came to my mother's house to collect on a hospital bill incurred by my father in 1997. This request came out of left field. There have been no prior requests for any outstanding hospital debts before now. My mother is now 83 and has senile dementia. This recent development has caused her a lot of distress. What are the statutes of limitations for hospital bills in Maryland? My father was covered by Blue Cross/Blue Shield as primary and Medicaid as secondary.
