Fiscal responsibility for visiting relatives
I had sponsored my parents-in-laws visa 5 years ago. They had gotten a
10 year B1 visa at that time. Since then my spouse and I have divorced.
Now as I understand, her mother is in hospital in US without proper
medical insurance and medical bills are growing rapidly. At this stage,
they will be unable to pay for medical bills. Will I be held
responsible for any unpaid medical bills since I sponsored their visa 5
years ago. Hospital authorities have told them that the sponsor would
have given a commitment to the US govt that the visitor will not become
a public discharge. Please advise

Assuming you used the I-134 form, you don't have to worry. The big
financial obligation is the I-864, used for immigration purposes.
