HCFS Health Care Financial Services, Inc. Debt Collection Complaint

HCFS Health Care Financial Services, Inc. Debt collection department,

Medical Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt was paid Arizona

I received statement notices from a hospital that i received patient care from, with the attending Dr 's and Dr Assistant statement reading that I owed them. They already had my Medical insurance info on file, and corresponded with me to collect money for their services. Then they reported to a collection agency without filing the claim with my insurance first. I have been so overwhelmed by this type of derogatory medical mark on my credit information. I have been depressed over this issue for awhile, and did n't know that I was the one who was n't at fault for them inadvertently making the mistake. I contacted my insurance carrier, and was advised that the hospital was n't supposed to correspond with me first, let alone have it submitted to a collection agency, that sent multiple corresponding letters. After I told them that the hospital was at fault for coming after me before contacting my insurance carrier, and then sicking a credit agency on me. Is there anything that can be done to compensate me from the agony, stress and harassment that I received?
