RIP Medical Debt

RIP Medical Debt brokers deals with hospitals or medical groups to purchase the debt at a reduced cost. Via this model, the nonprofit was able to turn just over $27,000 raised into $3.5 million in forgiven medical debt.

A Danville-based woman and medical bill navigator started the fundraising campaign with the nonprofit RIP Medical Debt. An inquiry from First Baptist Church in Bloomington led to McLean County's inclusion in the campaign.
