Remove Medical Collections From Credit Report

Pay it. Then in a few months, dispute it. Since it's been paid, the company won't take time to do all the work to prove it's legit so it'll get removed.

So from what I understand HIPPA prevents the actual medical bill from being on your credit. But when the debt is turned over to a collection agency, it is fair game. Nice work around.

Write a letter to the bureaus stating your case and what happened. State that it has since been paid and it was a mistake. In this case, when people actually take the time to address minor situations like this, they will usually remove it from your credit report.

Pay what you owe.
