Council Meetings resume Monday, Jan. 8, 2024.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nearly 16,000 Cleveland residents will soon begin receiving letters that their old medical debt has been cancelled by the non-profit RIP Medical Debt using funds provided by Cleveland City Council.
The cancellation of this medical debt - totaling $33 million - is a no-strings-attached gift and does not result in earned income or taxes. Residents no longer have any obligation to pay this debt to anyone, at any future time. No income taxes are owed. Residents do not apply for this, but instead are notified when it's cancelled. For more information go to: www.ripmedicaldebt.org.
