 Medical Bills that are in collections...?
I have a few negative items left on my report. They are a
paid judgement in 2004 but filed in 2002 from a cc company &
unpaid judgement from a hospital filed in 2006
there are 5 collection agency items from medical bills that arent mine. Someone was using my name. Each CR has different dates for them. One says date updated 9/2008, date placed in collections 5/2004 & I'm certain this one occurred well before 2001 b/c the person using my name was bragging in the neighborhood how she did it. I really shouldve dealt w/ this sooner but I havent had credit in so long& I didnt know I had that many rights until recently. My questions are: Is it violating HIPPAA laws for a medical creditor to give my info to a CA? Can medical collections be updated? Where do they get their dates from? Most of the dates on all of my CR's are way too recent. I havent used or had any credit in almost 10yrs. I've opted out, ordered all of my reports, signed up for a monitoring sevice, fixed my personal info. What should I try to get off next? Thank You
