Legal Question in Consumer Law in Virginia
Who pays collection fees on a insurance debt.
My medical insurance failed to pay the full amount on a claim. They later acknowledged it was their error and paid the claim. The debt went to collection without my knowledge. Now that the claim has been paid in full by my insurance the doctor's office is still requiring a collection fee and will not remove my name from collections. Is this legal or can I take them to court and force them to remove my name from collections.

Re: Who pays collection fees on a insurance debt.
A collection fee for what, if the bill has been paid? A surcharge of some kind because they had to send the bill for collection? Until the exact nature of this fee is clarified, there's really no way to answer your question.
