Arkansas, like most states, look at a number of factors involved. Typically the estate is responsible for paying the debts, including the medical bills of the deceased. If a child has co-signed any paperwork regarding medical procedures, they may be held liable. If they hope to inherit a house, they may have to pay the bills to avoid the house being sold to pay the debts.
