Should Medical Debt Be Included in Creditworthiness Measures?
Manage episode 434408798 series 2440870
The CFPB and state regulators and legislators have medical debt in their crosshairs. In this episode, we’re joined by Chris Eastman, CEO of the Pendrick Group, a Cerberus portfolio company that specializes in financial services solutions for healthcare companies. We discuss the differences between medical debt and other types of debt, as well as how states have been regulating medical debt including the collection of medical debt. Mr. Eastman discusses his company’s efforts to provide cash flows into hospitals and other healthcare providers that are operating at razor-thin margins. We also discuss the CFPB’s assertion that medical debt is less predictive than other sources of debt in determining the creditworthiness of a consumer. Mr. Eastman discusses how medical debt may be a valuable indicator when assessing the financial stress of a consumer.
Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel in Ballard Spahr’s Consumer Financial Services Group, leads the conversation, and is joined by Joseph Schuster, a Partner in the group.
