The lenders will look at the "overall" picture. What they will do is take into consideration if the medical bills were paid off. If they were not paid off your rating will suffer. If they were paid off, and it has been several years (I will say over 2 years) and all your other debts are paid on time (no 30 days late) and your debt to income ratio is not excessive (not more than say 40% of income) and you do not carry debts that are more than 30% of the available credit (some will go as high as 50%) then you may get a reasonably good score, somewhere around 680 to 700 points.

The effect on your credit will depend on how the lender chooses to report it to the credit bureau.

If it is reported as an actual repossession or foreclosure it will be on your credit for seven years and negatively effect your rating.
