In Colorado is a husband held responsible for medical bills?
Yes, in the state of Colorado, a husband (and wife) can be held responsible for their spouse's medical bills. Under Colorado law, in the absence of a prenuptial agreement or other written agreement, marital property is divided equally between spouses in a divorce. This includes assets and debts acquired during the marriage, such as medical bills. As a result, if a husband (or wife) incurs medical debts during the marriage, the other spouse may be held financially responsible for those debts, even if they did not personally incur the debt.
