None of the above seem to fit took the best one. I was in the Hospital in XXXX, XXXX, XXXX My Medicare advantage plan has now started charging a per diem charge for hospital stays day 1 - 6. Got a call from XXXX, told them to send me a bill, got my first bill in XXXX. XXXX had denied the orig. claim. total was {$800.00} I paid {$200.00}. XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and XXXX XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, Honor health sent me to collections the same day because I refused to make formal payment arrangements. The collection agency will not take payments said I had to talk to the Hosp. the Hosp will not take payments because they turned it over to collections. I only had 2 payments left and no one can decide where I should send them. The collection agency and Hosp want the full amount. I was told that XXXX XXXX REQUIRES a patient to set up payment arrangements. Can they demand full payment? I figured I 'd have this paid off in less than 6 months actually it would be 4 months so a payment arrangement contract did n't seem necessary. But now no one wants the MONEY. The per diem charge was new in XXXX usually we had a co-pay it came as a great surprise that now we have a per diem. They have me delinquent because the charge was for XXXX/XXXX/XXXX even though I did n't get a bill until XXXX XXXX. Is it true that even if you make your payments you can still be sent to collections? it seems a bit odd that a creditor would rather take 50 % than the entire balance. If they are willing to take 50 % I could do that.. Do n't know what to do now, I had planned to send the Hosp, XXXX on the XXXX of XXXX, but I am being told that the Hosp and Collection agency can not accept the payment. It used to be that if a payment was refused by the creditor the creditor risked having the debt cancelled, has that changed? XXXX citizens have enough problems we do n't need any more.
