If my husband and I file jointly will his state taxes go to my medical bills like my state will do?

    Probably, but that depends on the laws of your state.  There is a federal process for your spouse to protect their "share" of a refund, called "injured spouse", although this is only available for debts the other spouse carried before the marriage.  (Debts that were incurred during the marriage are less protectable.).  You should check your state tax department for a similar process.
