FAQ
Here are some examples of circumstances that lead to the establishment of medical or healthcare liens: Personal injury and motor vehicle accident cases where the patient is suing for damages. Accidents requiring extensive medical treatment not covered by insurance. Workers' compensation cases involving medical claims.
It is important to note that a hospital lien is not a lien against your home, your bank account(s), or your assets. A medical lien only attaches to the underlying cause of action. This means the lien is only against your claim arising out of a car accident, trucking accident, slip and fall accident, or dog bite case.
The short answer is yes, it is possible to lose your home over unpaid medical bills though the doctor or hospital would have to be willing to go to a lot of effort to make that happen. Medical debt is classified as unsecured debt. This means that your debt isn't tied to any collateral.
The NYSDOH guidance states that patients cannot be denied admission or medically necessary treatment due to unpaid medical bills.
The statute provides a qualified medical provider “shall have a lien for the reasonable charges” for the treatment of an injured person. The treatment must be necessary and for injuries which give rise to the injured person's cause of action.
