Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Kansas

If a person is in need of life saving or catastrophe preventing medical care, their spouse can be held liable for the reasonable expenses of those who provide that care. If a married couple is on the same insurance plan, and the extra spouse contracts for care, the primary insured can sometimes be held liable for medical care that they knew was occurring.

If a creditor sues and obtains a judgment against a person for unpaid medical bills, they may execute against bank accounts. If a married couple co-ingles their money (puts it into the same joint account) the judgment creditor might be entitled to the entire account, up to the balance owed on the judgment. In that way, the other spouse is paying for the medical bills of the other spouse.

Good luck
