I may be incorrect but I swear I read somewhere that the United States and New Zealand are the only two countries in the world that allow medical debt. If you can verify or refute this please post here. Thank you for what you do!

Trump’s CFPB just blocked states from protecting families against medical debt on credit reports.

Banks win. Debt collectors win. Credit bureaus win.
Families lose.

Getting sick should never mean financial ruin.

Illness is hard enough—why add a crushing bill on top?
Americans are drowning in medical debt while CEOs pocket millions.
We can have a system that covers everyone, with no copays, no deductibles, and no surprise bills.

That’s Medicare for All.

Patient-Centered Care → We cut costs, so you have to do more yourself.

Standard of Care → The bare minimum we’re legally required to provide.

💊 They cut costs. You suffer.

💰 They meet legal minimums. You deserve better.

Push for real healthcare, not corporate spin.

Medical Debt Forgiveness → We overcharged, now we’ll pretend to be generous.

They ruin lives with medical bills, then expect applause for canceling a debt they should never have charged.

This isn’t kindness. It’s a scam.

Healthcare should heal, not bankrupt.

Elective Procedure → It’s important, but we won’t cover it.

Medical Necessity Review → A random person will decide if you really need this.

Network Optimization → Your doctor isn’t covered anymore.

Optimized Workflow → Fewer nurses, more stress, longer wait times.

"Elective." "Necessary." "Optimized."

These words sound reassuring—until you realize they mean delays, denials, and dropped coverage.

They don’t call it rationing care—but that’s exactly what it is.

Your health isn’t a profit margin.

Actuarial Adjustment → We calculated how to screw you over.

Claims Processing Delay → We don’t want to pay yet.

Actuarial Adjustment. Claims Processing Delay.
Sounds official, right? That’s the point. Big Pharma & hospital systems hide behind jargon to put profits over patients.
This week, we break down the deception in healthcare.

From HC Richardson: Yesterday the Biden administration announced the finalization of a new rule that will remove medical debt from all credit reports. Until now, medical debt has meant that consumers could be denied mortgages, car loans, or small business loans.

You are correct but the expense involved can be prohibitively expensive. I successfully removed $54k in medical debt liens but it cost $3000 to do Chap 7 because it was extra steps to remove the judgement liens.

Medical bills can be turned into secured debt when the provider sues, gets a judgement then puts a lien on any real estate owned, like your house. This prevents transfer of the deed until paid.

Healthcare for profit is evil.
