. Medical bills?

Assuming you're being serious and just are either extraordinarily sheltered or extraordinarily lucky:

Speaking strictly from a US perspective, medical costs are typically extremely high even for basic things. Hell one time I had a 2nd degree burn on my hand, went to the Emergency Room, all they did was put ointment on it and bandage it up and it cost me almost $1000.

And that's extremely CHEAP compared to what a lot of people have to deal with. Don't even ask about what diabetic people have to pay up.

Must be horrible living in America.

Eh, in some ways. No country is a monolith, and there are benefits. But financially unless you're in the top 1%, it's likely gonna be a hard life for you.
