Huh??

Post by nvalleyvee »

I I tried every which way but loose to find this company on the internet.....

Collection agency from the $12,000 I owed for my mastectomy at the hospital - I had paid it down to $6,800.000........stupid hospital said I didn't pay enough every month...............Owed $8,000 --- paid it down to $6,400 in one year. Now i owe less than half of the debt. Dang ...........You know what really pissed me about this???

I found them.......the collection agency from my cancer 3 years ago and tried to make deal with them. I owe you 4,000 - I paid you 6,800.

I'm cancelling my bank account you get your money every month...........Either we make a deal or I owe you another 4 years............this is my new acccount number.

With insurance - insurance would have paid about $4,600.00. I owed $12,000.00. It is their compromise. To pay cash - no insurance - is to pay FULL PRICE. Look at your insurance payment bills. The insurance companies pay about 2/5 to 1/2 of the bill.

Have no insurance and YOU PAY 100%.

It took me 3 years and 2 months to pay every bill but one...............that was $63,000.00 out of pocket............my personal income.........they saved my life and I was damned if I did not pay them.

I paid everything ---- over $49,000. with no insurance........ and this bill. Damn them for making me feel bad!!!

I could have gone to Thailand or Hawaii or or the Canary Islands, or all of them...............all of them for just 2 weeks each.

I could have been an ass and only thought of myself...............bankruptcy sounded good.

I paid the people who saved my life................for over 3 years..................

So I feel good in my heart now.........but only because I needed to pay for them.

What company is it you are trying to find?

Have you contacted your state's attorney general?

If you are paying cash and have no insurance, they are suppose to give you discount. What hospital was that? I know the hospitals are bad here. My insurance just paid them 10,000. and I owed 1,000. and they are hounding me. I made a payment of 100.00 for 1 month and that is not good enough. I told them you can't get blood from a stone and I thought they charged to much to begin with.

We went thru the same situation with my husbands cancer. Everytime my husband was admitted, all new costs, all new deductibles $$.

We should have a wing named after us.
