Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. How do the Current Illinois bank exemptions affect my collection strategy?
Under SB 1738, debtors now have an automatic $1,000 protection in their bank accounts. Nexa’s asset-location tools are calibrated to identify higher-value accounts where recovery remains viable, ensuring you don’t waste legal fees on protected funds.
2. Can you garnish wages in Illinois for medical debt?
Yes, but only after obtaining a court judgment. For a debtor earning minimum wage ($15.00/hr), they must take home more than $675 per week before any wages can be garnished. We handle these complex calculations for you to ensure 100% compliance.
3. Is Nexa HIPAA compliant for my Rockford clinic?
Absolutely. We maintain 100% HIPAA compliance with high-level encryption and staff training to ensure your patient’s data is never compromised during the recovery process.
