I have a child who was covered under his father with XXXX. Because he was considered XXXX the state of tx stepped in and gave his secondary insurance through medicaid. Which covered ALL unpaid expenses XXXX did n't cover. Over the course of about 2 years the Dr 's and hospitals my son was seen at neglected to file with BOTH insurance companies after I repeatedly told them to do so. I provided the information needed and the insurance cards as well. A couple years later, I have now had XXXX collection accounts show up on my credit report. Some for as little as {$30.00} simply because they did file with XXXX but not with the medicaid. XXXX will not pay after 90 days so these companies sent the bill to his father who covers him under XXXX. I never got ANY bill. Yet, all of a sudden I have all these collections. I have disputed and tried to get these companies to understand that he was covered and should have filed with the ins but they say it is not MY responsibility. I feel the debt is not mine because I made sure to give them the information necessary to get paid. The child was fully covered for 100 % of his bills, and simply because they were too lazy to file they want me to pay all of these. How is that fair? These accounts are the ONLY negative accounts on my credit report, and since they broke them up into {$30.00}, {$39.00}, {$43.00}, etc I have XXXX collections accounts. This ruins my credit and my chances at getting good rates with any financing for cars, houses, etc. This needs to be fixed and changed. It't not right that they can pull this and it should be illegal.
