    He is only responsible for her bills if he is a co-signer or guarantor. Husbands and wives are not automatically responsible; however, be aware of the little box on the medical form that says, "Responsible party."

    HOWEVER - her ESTATE is responsible for her medical bills to the extent it is able to pay. They come right off the top.
