Medical bill on CR, but I had insurance ...
Hi, Hope everything is going OK.
Ive been getting letters/calls from a CA about a medical bill originally $150 now $195 w/ fees. I kept ignoring them b/c I coudnt remember why I had that bill or even if it was mine. I sent out dispute letters for other things on my CR first and was waiting for reponses before I researched this one. Anyway, it hit me like a ton of bricks today that I was changing jobs then but I always had insurance. I found the original invoice where it shows I paid $10 the day of the visit (co-pay) & the balance was $150. It also says the date of service was 3/2/08. I called the insurance company I had then for the dates my ins was actvie & they gave me a termination date of 4/1/08. My question is who do I contact about this, first? CA or OR? I dont want to screw things up talking to someone I shouldnt have. This account is the only newer account on my CR. The rest are before 2002. Its been on my CR for almost a yr., Should I ask them to run it thru the ins again? Or just a
deletion letter? Has anyone ever had this happen? Thank you
