I think your best course of action now would be to go to a credit counseling agency (non-profit). They will stop the hospital from going to a collection agency and force them to accept whatever payment plan they make up for you- at one time I was paying a creditor $10/ month and they were greatful for that. Bankruptcy should be a last resort, and despite how you feel, (depression does color everything)it's usually reserved for people who owe considerably more than you and have homes they want to protect- plus it follows you for 10 years (far longer than this depression I hope). Another suggestion I liked was the MSW, I agree they are so much more practical, and that is exactly what you need now.
let us know how things work out- take care, judy
