The CA was assigned our (disputed) bill on April 05 2004 but they are charging interest retroactively to when the bill was generated by the hospital. Is this allowed?! And if so, do you have a reference to what law governs their ability to charge interest and how it's computed? Thanks for any replies.
I'll have to get a copy and look. If the hospital was not charging interest, and their contract was assigned to the CA with the original amount owing, how can the hospital's contract dictate what a third party collection agency is allowed to collect?
