Minnesota Medical Bill Assistance

Your medical bills might be out of control, but your finances do not have to be. Find out how you can regain your good credit while satisfying bill collectors at the same time.

For starters, you can receive financial counseling from Lutheran Social Service by calling 1-888-577-2227. They have offices in Brainerd, Duluth, Eveleth, Hopkins, Mankato, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Superior (in Wisconsin) and Willmar. You can get help with managing your medical bills.

Some people may tell you that bankruptcy is the only way out of major medical debt. Others may say that debt settlement is the best way to go.

The best solution depends on your situation. It might be entirely possible that credit counseling can help you manage your medical bills and your other debt accounts. Contact one of these Minnesota based charities today.
