    Charge-off means a bill was not paid, and the original creditor charged off (took a loss) for the unpaid amount. It may, or may not, have been paid later. It generally counts negatively against your FICO score.

    Lost or stolen card is reported when you tell a CC company that you lost your card and they issue you a new one, blocking the old one, or sometimes when you report a fraudulent charge. As far as I know, it does not count negatively toward FICO.

    Medical bills in collection count negatively, just like any other collection account.
