If there is nothing left to their estate I assume the hospital would just write it off.

hospitals and other debt holders could come after an estate or spouse to pay medical and other bills

the cost of caskets are outragous.
the first time I was involved in picking one out was for my dad. we walked in to look at the different caskets and I seen the prices and like usual used my outside voice instead of my inner voice and said, where's the scratch and dent section. my brothers weren't too happy with me about that. |

the one we got was cheaper than that. some states you can get away with a lot less than others. in MO. the last I knew if your casket didn't have a seal you had to be in a vault so it's easier to just get a sealed casket or die in a state that don't need a vault or sealed casket.

seen the cost of pine lately? I'm going with cardboard. Something that says Hotpoint on the side, since that's where I hope to end up.

The estate stands good for any and all bills. When the estate is gone the rest is written off. Social security will give a check to the wife or child for about $240 or so.
I Burried my mother when I was 19 and had to do some growing up during the whole thing. Funerals are expensive. I hope for your sake there was some life insurance, the hospital can't take that cause it would be paid to wife or kids of the person passed. Always always always keep enough insurance to at least bury yourself so you don't burden your loved ones. |
