In early 2022, Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion announced 3 major changes to how medical debt is reported. Together the changes are expected to remove ~70% of medical collection debt tradelines from consumer credit reports.
The changes are welcome as signficant medical debt in the US affects nearly 1 in 10, or 23 million, adults, according to recent data from the Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker.
