The changing medical debt landscape in the United States
Starting in 2022, three nationwide credit reporting companies made significant changes to medical debt reporting. These changes helped cut the number of Americans with medical debt in collections in half and improve credit scores. But 15 million Americans still have medical debt in collections, and most debt balances remain on credit reports.


A new Urban Institute data tool shows medical debt in collections by geography over time and allows users to view potential debt drivers, as well as how local policies affect medical debt. This dashboard could help states and localities make more informed decisions on reducing debt burdens.
