Q: What advantage or disadvantate would NOT paying Hospice or HMO bills and waiting for these creditors to file a claim against the estate?
Our Attny's paralegal suggested that we stop paying any of my mother-in-law's (MIL) medical bills, which are nearly $8K. At least not until my wife is declared Executor of the Estate.
I wouldn't want to do anything that would extend probate and cause additional legal costs, along with the grief, that would be no savings we have enough money in a joint account to pay.
TIA
