dlopez+Followcan ignoring medical bills actually work?I've noticed something curious about my 2-year-old hospital bill that's been bouncing between collection agencies. The original $580 debt is now showing as $380 after being sold to a second collection company! Has anyone else watched their medical debt decrease just by waiting it out? I'm wondering if this strategy actually works long-term or if I'm risking bigger problems? Also curious about negotiation tactics that have worked for others dealing with old medical bills. What's been your experience with medical collections? #MedicalBills #DebtNegotiation #CuriousMind84194Share
dlopez+Followdon't let medical bills ruin your creditWhen facing medical billing issues in California, know your rights! California law (AB 1020) prohibits reporting medical debts under $500 to credit agencies, and all medical debt is granted a 180-day grace period before reporting. Before negotiating with collectors, document everything. Get itemized bills, check for errors, and write a formal dispute letter to both the hospital and collection agency detailing the double-billing issue. Keep communications in writing and request debt validation. California residents have stronger medical debt protections than most states - use them! #MedicalDebtRights #CaliforniaConsumerProtection #DebtNegotiation #HealthcareBilling 10Share
