Divorce and Health Insurance?

health insurance fraud
qa1 asked:

I am finishing off my divorce, have not worked in 8 years, no degreee, need health insurance, i don’t want to ask my lawyer this. If we go through the process of all the divorce proceedings, support splitting assets and agree to that and not sign the final papers so i can stay on his health insurance would that be a bad thing. Or sign the papers and not tell the company we are divorce (i know this is insurance fraud) but he works for a rather large company that really has no process to find this out. Help.

Hospital Bill Liability?

David W asked:


When I was 19 years old I became very ill very suddenly and was taken into the emergency room by an ambulance. I was unconscious for most of the episode, I did not give the hospital any information, I did not sign anything at all; at the time I was homeless.

I was never billed for the treatment.

Here I am 8 years later. I was refused financing based on a collection on file. When I checked my credit report I had a collection with a company called Credit Control Corporation for over $3000.00 dollars. The address listed on my credit report was an address that I haven’t lived at since I was 17. The hospital gave the collection company outdated and completely invalid (even when I was 19) contact information and as a result it my credit was ruined. Is there anything that I can do other than just pay the bill? I don’t feel that I should be held responsible for the hospital’s mistake.
