What is the name of your state? Missouri.
My mother just recently passed away from breast cancer. She has a large amount of bills owed to hospitals, doctors, and such because she did not have medical insurance. She also was on medicaid, and estate recovery should be coming. She died without a will. Do I need to file something with the state or anything else? Or do I just wait for the state and creditors to start the proceedings to take the rest of her assets? BTW, the debts far outweigh the assets, and my family will not receive anything. Any advice will be helpful, thanks.
