Would debt that I have incurred with the VA for medical bills be dischargable, and if so would I lose my VA medical benefits if they are put in the bankruptcy

Quote:
If you can't afford to make copays there are three options: Request a waiver of the copays you currently owe. To request a waiver, you must submit proof that you can???t financially afford to make payments to VA. Contact the Revenue Coordinator at the VA health care facility where you receive care for more information. Request a hardship determination so we won???t charge you in the future. If you request a hardship, you are asking VA to change your Priority Group assignment. You will need to submit current financial information and a decision will be made based on the information you provide. You may contact the Enrollment Coordinator at your local VA for more information. Request a compromise. A compromise is an offer and acceptance of a partial payment in settlement and full satisfaction of the debt as it exists at the time the offer is made. Most compromise offers that are accepted must be for a lump sum payment payable in full 30 days from the date of acceptance of the offer. You may contact the Enrollment Coordinator at your local VA for more information. |
