I went to the ER here 5 years ago. It suddenly came up on my credit score a few months ago I had no idea about it for years! The hospital made a mistake and incorrectly billed me and not my insurance even though I gave them all my information. They sent my information to a collection agency without ever notifying me that I had an outstanding bill. It crippled my credit score and has seriously affected my life. When I tried to clear the situation up I was met with a response of "it's to late we already sold the debt to the collections agency." For their mistake they have devastated a young persons credit score and financial future. This is very unjust of the hospital and especially in an industry that is supposed to be helping people, not destroying peoples lives. I would steer clear of this hospital.
