Are You in Collections for Medical Debt? My Firm Can Help!

Collection agencies that collect medical debt are held to the exact same standards for collection practices as any other agency under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). Even so, many consumers consider medical bills to be different than other bills. This misunderstanding can lead to serious financial damage for the consumer being charged for the medical treatment.

Once a healthcare provider turns their patient over for debt collection, the collection agency immediately reports the debt to credit reporting agencies without giving the consumer a chance to resolve the debt. In many cases, the consumer may not even understand what they are being billed for because of third-party billing. All of this can have a very serious and adverse effect on the consumer's credit score.
