Q: I am being sued in mo. for medical bill that was not submitted to my insurance and bill was sent to ex wife nov 2019
I had a heart attack and was sent to another hospital with a cardiologist on staff. I cant recall being asked at ER for medical card and a person in billing said i was listed as self pay, even though i had the same insurance in 2012 visit. The hospital said I should have sent change of address forms but I have letters adressed to me postmarked prior to nov 2019. do i need a lawyer?
A:
If enough money is at stake and you can afford an attorney, I recommend you hire one to defend the case or to try to negotiate a settlement.
