Would small claims against work against a hospital for their fraudulent billing practices?
I was billed for a Medicaid insurance that the state paid but the hospital kept billing me for over $10. I complained to the state, etc, eventually called the hospital billing department to resolve. I didn't get a definite answer if they will stop billing. But so far no bills. They were going to send to collections. An Avvo attorney said likely the hospital is committing fraud for billing me where there is $0 co pays.
