I had to send taxes and employment info to have this happen-which i did. Have not heard anything since til now from theCA.</P><P>question is-CA says I have 30 days to reply as to validity of debt. I do not want to contact them-have them DV and then no HIPPA recourse.</P><P>I will contact OC and see what is up-should I ignore the CA til I sort it out or send them letter but specify for them NOT to DV-that I am in touch w/ OC?</P> Thu, 11 Feb 2010 14:56:06 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Quick-medical-debt-CA-and-HIPPA/m-p/633495#M139075 Anonymous 2010-02-11T14:56:06Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Quick-medical-debt-CA-and-HIPPA/m-p/645986#M140138 See my sig.
