No unless his name is on any debt or contract.
yes, the wife has to deal with the bills
my mother in law died last year and her husband was responsible for her medical bills. Over $200,000.
If the deceased person is your wife then I think you are responsible for her medical bills
No she is not at all responsible for the bills.
You may be responsible, if it is not a legal separation.
yes
The Wife.
The spouse is not directly responsible, unless they have co-signed for the services. The estate is responsible for settling all medical bills in Florida. So before the spouse can inherit anything, the estate has to pay the bills.
No, they are not
In Michigan the estate has the responsibility to settle all debts, including medical bills, not the husband. Once that is done, then remainder can be distributed to the husband.
My husband just died about 6 months ago and no, i am not responsible for his medical bills....I have spoken with my Lawyer and he informed me in fl i do not have to cover ANY unpaid debt of a spouse
No they would not be responsible for the debt unless it was before they were divorced. The estate has to resolve the bills.
