Undue Medical Debt
About the Organization
Undue Medical Debt (formerly RIP Medical Debt) is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose purpose is to strengthen communities by erasing financially burdensome medical debt. Founded in 2014, Undue Medical Debt is one of the leading charitable organizations that addresses medical bills. We work tirelessly to end medical debt and ensure a
future where everyone can access healthcare without fear.
How does it work? Undue utilizes donations to buy large bundles of medical debt and then relieves that debt with no tax consequences to recipients. The results have been spectacular— more than $23 billion in medical debts eradicated so far, providing financial relief for over 14 million individuals and families. We strive to be a source of justice in an unjust healthcare finance system; an innovative solution for patient-centered healthcare providers; and a moral force for systemic change.
Undue’s offices are located in Long Island City, NY, just minutes from Manhattan, conveniently located steps
away from many major subway lines. The team has implemented and fully embraced a hybrid work environment, working from the office only 3 days per week. A portion of Undue’s team lives outside of New York City and are fully remote. Remote employees are expected to work with their managers to plan regular travel to the NYC office for team engagement.
