Asked April 2016
My mom passed away she was very sick and could not sign any papers at the hospital, so I did it for her. Will I be responsible for her hospital bills?
I just want to know if I am responsible for paying her bills?

If your Mom was on Medicare, Medicare will pay most of the hospitalization. Hopefully you had legal Power of Attorney to sign for her.
