tldw: Hospitals legally must* forgive hospital bills if you make less than a certain amount of money. Search for name of hospital + “financial assistance”, looking for a financial assistance or Charity Care policy. The policy itself will probably be long, but you’re looking for a sliding scale.
In the hospital he looks up for the video, the bills will be completely forgiven at a household income of 3x the federal poverty level or less.
( * if they are nonprofits, which apparently many are. )
