They are probably responding to what they though was a DV. However, they may have violated HIPAA. I don't know enough about it, but do know that a 3rd party can not see or resend info detailing your personal medical info. They can respond with codes, but not details.If you agree with the balance and don't want to pursue HIPAA, then keep sending the PFDs and maybe send to the higher-ups of the CA (law firm). Kindly and strongly encourage them to accept the PFD due to violating medical privacy per HIPAA.

I sent (by FAX, and instructed them to reply by fax) a PFD (the stock PFD here, tailored a bit, of course) to a CA for a medical collections. They sent me back by mail a bill detailing all the procedures done. Not a single word responding to the PFD I offered.
What do I do now? Are they in any violation for responding to me by mail? By sending me a copy of the bill with several medical procedures documented?? Do I just keep sending PFDs to them???
I should probably mention that the CA in question is a law firm ... I don't know if that means anything, but thought I'd mention it!!
TIA for any advice, opinions, feedback, etc!!
