Nonprofit to buy, relieve soldiers' medical debt

Nonprofit organization 4Patriots will make the first of an ongoing series of donations to RIP Medical Debt to relieve medical debt for active U.S. military personnel and veterans.

RIP Medical Debt is a military-specific organization that analyzes medical debt portfolios to determine those most in need of relief, then negotiates with collection agencies to purchase the debt for a reduced amount. The organization then takes on the debt itself, alleviating the debtor of his or her financial obligations.

4Patriots aims to help relieve military personnel of nearly $100,000 in medical debt.
