Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York
Medical Debt
Can a collection agency collect on a medical debt 9 years after the service has been rendered. Can they claim more than the original bill stated? At the time of the service the hospital did not submit the claim to our insurance company even though the hospital had all our insurance information.
