Medical bill false reporting?

[Anonymous]

I had an x-ray bill slip through the cracks of being paid by the VA. The account was reported by a CA as $250. Over the course of the past months, I have mailed them a GW letter and a PFD letter. I recently received a response which just looks like a print out from the hospitals medical billing section. It says I owe $38. Maybe the rest is late charges and penalties?

I do not know what step to take now. Fight as false reporting? Pay the $38 or $250? Keep sending letters? I'm not afraid to talk to these people on the phone, just don't know what to ask for that would benefit me the most.

Any suggestions?

IMHO since it is a Medical bill I would google Hippa Process and follow that, I had a great success with it a few years ago

getting things paid and removed from my credit report
