Collection from Phoenix

I'm going to apologize for this being long to start with but i think you'll need the back story to make sense of it.  

 

In February 2015, I went to the ER for major pains in my chest.  Worse than having babies ever thought of being and so bad I was screaming in a pillow.  The ER nurse asked how bad it was and I said a 10.  When I got to the back the dr said I had gerd, he gave me something nasty to drink and after I waited in the room for a couple hours, he had the nurse send me home.  I went to a specialist in March and told her and she did tests and I had surger to remove my  gall bladder on April 15.  At the end of April, I got a hospital bill for the ER.  I called the patient services office and they reviewed it and said the dr was negligent and wrote off the bill.  Then i got a bill from the ER dr separately and I disputed it.  They said it was valid since I did "see" him.  I called the hospital again and she said no she would call them.  A couple months ago, the patient services person died and i've heard nothing else from that dr's billing dept.  Until about a month ago.  I received a bill from Phoenix Financial and it is now showing as collections on my CR.  The Phoenix bill lists Cascade Capital LLC Seriece C as the creditor but the bill was originally from Emergency Management Group.  I've never heard of Cascade and never got a bill from them.  

 

What do I need to do to get rid of this thing?  It is for $169 but it's the principal of the matter.  They offered a settlement for $101 but I still don't want to pay that. Ideas???

I would send them an ITS letter explaining that it has already been negated per whomever authorized it. ITS letter is intent to sue.

I had a collection with Phoenix as well. I simply filed a complaint with the BBB and stated I never received verification that the debt was mine. They deleted. You could give it a shot!!
