Yes, although it is not actually the hospital that pursues collection, it is a medical collections agency. If the collector decides they cannot collect the money owed by regular collection procedure they can file a lawsuit or enter into arbitration. If the plaintiff (collector) wins, they will receive a judgment and execute the writ of judgment as a property lien. Although there are some states prohibit liens against homesteads that are owned jointly by a married couple.

How do you lien a house in Canada?

I can only assume you are asking how can someone put a lien on a home in Canada? The owner of the home would have to owe you or the government a lot of money before you could put a lien on their home and even if it was a private affair I'm not 100% sure a private party can put a lien on someone's home. It's usually banks and or money owed to governments who put liens on a persons home.
