Collection Agency Practices for Medical Debt

What Are Medical Debt Collection Practices?

These are the rules and methods that collection agencies must follow when trying to collect unpaid medical bills. Federal laws like the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) protect you from harassment, false statements, and other unfair practices.

Why They Matter

These laws give you rights. They ensure you can dispute a debt you don't believe you owe and protect you from abusive tactics. Understanding these rules is crucial when dealing with a collection agency.
