Credit record problems?

Question

I am on permanent disability and have had a lot of medical issues.

Medicare pays 80% and I cannot pay the remaining 20% so my credit is filled with medical bills I have no chance of paying.

Do I have to just grin and bear it? Is there nothing I can do?

Ive contacted the hospitals but they all say the same thing they passed it off to the debt collectors and they just want their $$ that I cant afford to pay

Answer 1

Just grin & bear it.  They cannot by law take your disability or social security income.   Tell the collectors you have no way to pay & to not contact you again, that you only receive disability income so do what they want.  Since there is nothing they can legally do they should leave you alone.

Answer 2

ask for charity care

Answer 3

Contact the credit agency and see if they can do anythong
