Medical bills causing bankruptcy - stat increases

I found this new recent article that says medical bills and related expenses contribute to 62% of personal bankruptcies. It doesn't matter if the people had/have medical insurance -same stat. Depressing.

This percentage has increased from 55% in 2001. I don't know about you but the one person I'm close to who declared bankruptcy did it because of medical bills. And they had some insurance.

Eh, what to do.... you can't save enough for cancer or GI problems or a car accident. Hope for the best, I guess, and trust God in all things.
