My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: Pa
Hi all, ok here's the deal. My husband and I operate a small trucking business, and have carried our own health insurance for quite a while with a large ins
co. In Jan 07 our son was diagnosed with a blood disease that made him very ill. He spent 4 months in a children's hospital. Our insurance provider paid 90% of his bills after the deductables were met. Seems easy enough right. Well , I ended up with a giant ten percent. I started making payments right away . Some of the doctors still turned us over to collection , because in there words we needed to resolve the balance quickly . Ok I get that , but at the time I was slightly overwhelmed with All of them . Who do you pay first type thing. I gave more to older claims and less to newer ones. The ones that ended up in collection I tried to make payment arrangements with . Now some are paid in full with others still oweing. Our work has became exstreamly slow with in the last 4 months . Now I don't know what to do . I haven't made a medical payment in the last two months , and instead am trying to pay car payments truck payments and keep our home. I got a collection call yest from a wicked lady explaining I have an agreement and if they don't get their money I will have a judgement against me. At this point i'm about to say ok go ahead whatever. I know it's not the doctors fault and they deserve to be paid , but i'm not made if money . Should i nicely ask them to hold the bill till things turn around , if they don't turn around quickly enough i may be headed for bankruptcy.
