In the US: a big gotcha is medical debt.

Surviving spouses are often stuck with the debt after the patient dies.

It’s one of the many reasons that when you check into a hospital they make you and your spouse sign all kinds of paperwork.

It’s usually the first thing they make you do, and why they roll out that stupid computer cart. Making sure you can and will pay (even after death) is all they really care about. Doing it right when you come in (scared and seeking help) is when they love to pounce.
