New One word: Garnishment.
[link|http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/advice/t-14467.html|Help! They garnished my checking account!] And paying [link|http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/small-claims/medical-garnishment-33451.html|$10/month didn't help.]. Often people have little choice in how much they pay toward their medical bills.

Showing up without ID might work in an emergency situation like being bitten by a spider, ;-), but it won't do any good for treatment of chronic conditions - the situations where most of the expense lies.

Cheers,
Scott.

New you cant get garnished without a judgement
you cant get a judgement if someone is paying $5 a month towards the bill.
thanx,
bill

New Its obvious they got a default judgement against her
she didnt go to court to defend. You cant garnish without a judgement. You cant get a judgement if you are paying the bill.
thanx,
bill
