re: Will an unpaid hospital bill hurt my credit score?

I have like 4 of them on my credit report. has never negatively affected me. Just bought a car last month, bought a house 3 years ago when they were on the report as well and they were never brought up and i have great interest rates.
I'm not going through the trouble of getting the dumbasses at the billing department to correct the issue they fricked up. I'm also not paying for shite that is given to me at the doctors office when i'm not told how much it will cost. They hand shite out like everything is free. I always ask if this will cost extra, and the normal response is "i'm not sure, depends on your insurance". WELL FIND THE frick OUT THEN! that's like going to the mechanic and he says hey you want me to change this out for you too, and you say, how much will that costs, and he says, i don't know, i'll just add it to your bill, and you say, sure that sounds reasonable.

This country needs a revamp of our medical system from top to bottom. There is no reason an advil should cost $20 for one of them when in the hospital when you can buy 100 of them at CVS for $8.
