HIPAA Letter to OC

adamseve · ‎06-04-2008

I have several paid medical collections that are reporting on my CR. However, I don't have a clue about the date of service, who the patient was, etc. I'd like to send this HIPAA letter to hurry & get them off my report. I've already disputed these with the CRA, but they've not responded yet and they haven't been deleted.

How should I proceed?

You should figure out what you should do next-

You next step will be based on if the CRA's verify or not.

good luck

Timothy,

I did read the Whychat info. However, I'm just trying to figure out should I call Medicol to get this information or DV them to get the date of service, name of patient, treatment, etc. Or, should I wait for the CRA to send me validation if they can get it?

Whychat's letter's is not a swift process.

You can call the OC if you need additional info. Don't call the CA AT ALL if you are using Whychat's letter's. His site will explain why.

Unfortunately, the OC won't give me any info. The CA is their in-house company so I don't have much choice in whether or not I speak to them or not if I want the information.

I hate to be dishonest so I need to find a way to get this information so I can have these collections deleted since they've been paid. Any suggestions? I could always have my daughter pretend to be me to get the info.

I don't understand why the OC cannot give this information to you. Did they say why? If it is in-house then surely they know the information you are requesting. I would call and escalate to someone who can help you.

They said that they no longer have the info since they've transferred it to their in-house collection agency.
