Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Michigan
Death
My brother passed away after 3 weeks
in the hospital, he had no Health
insurance. Can the Hospital's go after
his estate (house) to collect payment?
He wasn't married and had no children.

Re: Death
The hospital may file a claim against his estate. Title to the house determines if it is part of the estate. There are also time limitations and formalities regarding notice that are very strict. Please contact me to discuss in detail. johntatone.com
