Going to have ~4K in medical bills this month. Any recommended credit card to open to maximize points (I'll pay it off, not looking for low interest etc.). I was just going to go for a large SUB, but not sure if any cards give bonus points for medical or something along those lines

Go for SUB, venture x or Amex platinum are probably your best bets right now for personal cards.

Wowza, people love shilling their referrals. Already have a VentureX friends :)

Chase Ink for SUB

Idk but Amex plat right now bonus isn’t the best at all. It’s $8k spend in 6 months for only 80k points.

Through resy it’s 100k and 10x in dining for 6 months. There are some good targeted offers too.

CareCredit is good for medical/dental cost financing at no interest. Or just set up an interest free payment plan with the hospital and pay it over the next year or two

Also, I didn’t really read your full Post until after I replied so I didn’t answer your question, just gave you my opinion

I’m not aware of any cards that offer bonus points/miles for medical expenses (beyond Chase’s drug store/pharmacy bonuses with the Freedom Unlimited) - honestly, not a bad idea though. Creates an interesting incentive structure. Wonder if a hospital system would ever partner with a bank to make it happen.

I would use a Chase Ink Unlimited. Not only is it 0% interest for 12 months but also the SUB is about $900
