Help me with HIPPA

I followed the HIPPA process. I sent the paid insert HIPAA LETTER TO THE OC to the OC. The OC called me and said that they will not ask the CA to remove the entry. On DVing the CRA all I get is a statement of the paid account.

 

What shoud I do now?

Re: Help me with HIPPA

Ok, lets backup here. Did you do the following? And if you so, did you do them in the proper order?

 

 

Step #1: You must Opt Out of two things: Your Credit Reports and All Creditors. The first one ensures that the CRAs will not sell your personal data to anyone else (haha…no more data mining). The second one will prevent JDBs (and CAs) from buying and selling bogus collections.

 

Use this link to opt-out of your credit reports

OPT-OUT CREDIT REPORTS (or call 1.888.567.8688)

 

Use this link to opt-out from all of your CURRENT creditors that you're in GOOD standing with. Do not attempt to opt-out with any CAs or current creditors that you're in BAD standing with (i.e. charge-offs, or currently late).

OPT-OUT ALL CREDITORS

 

 

Step #2: Also, be sure to update your personal information with the CRA's before doing any credit repair.

 

 

Step #3: Send the pre-HIPAA dispute letter to the CRA ('s) CM (no RR, this is the only letter in the HIPAA process where you will not send it CMRRR) and wait up to 35 days for the results of the their investigation(s). Be sure to handwrite this letter and use personalized stationary. If your med collection is deleted, you're finished.

Re: Help me with HIPPA

After the CRAs received your pre-HIPAA medical dispute letters, did the CA ever send you a complete and accurate validation of the debt? You said the collection is paid, is it also reporting as paid?

Yes it is being reported as paid 0(zero) balance, in all CR's.

All the CA sent me was a Statement of the account. Smiley Sad

Statement of the account? What was on the statement? Was the OC's info on this statement?

Ok, final question (I hope).Smiley Happy After the OC received your HIPAA letter, did you send the follow-up letter below to CRAs CMRR with a copy of the green card from the HIPAA letter?

Yes, they sent the name of the CA. That is it, nothing else.

Re: Help me with HIPPA

Oh, darn, more questions. On your reports, is the collection marked as disputed by consumer and verified. Is the collection on all three reports?
