Will the hospital sue for defaulting on medical expenses?

If you are in arrears with medical expenses, the hospital has the right to sue you. Because the patient and the hospital have formed a legal relationship of medical services, the patient's spouse, parents and children, as their legal heirs, should bear to pay all medical expenses within the scope of inheriting their property.

You are the legal heir of your parents, and the hospital has the right to ask you to pay off your debts. Refusing to pay, the hospital has the right to file a lawsuit and request the court to enforce it. Medical expenses refer to the expenses that the victim must pay for medical examination, treatment and rehabilitation training after personal injury.
