Legal Question
Request for Bill Documents
My son was in an auto accident last year. Recently he
received a letter from a collection agency for a bill
from the ER doctor. We have no record of having
received any bill from him. All other hospital bills
were received and paid. I asked the Dr's billing
office for a copy of the bill they refused saying all
correspondense should be directed at the collection
agency. If i did not receive a bill are they
obligated by law to give me a copy. I do not think i
should be responsible for the additional expenses
($110) that the collection agenct has added to the
bill. What can I expect from the Dr's office or do I
have to deal with the collection agency? The bill
needs to be sent to the insurance company of the ''at
fault'' driver of the accident for payment.
