To start I have Medicaid. I saw a minute clinic in January to get a prescription refilled when I couldn’t get to my regular doctor. Medicaid paid for the medicine but got a bill for the visit. Called minute clinic and they said I needed to contact Medicaid. Medicaid said they would cover it and minute clinic needs to bill it to them properly. I have called them numerous times and every time I call back they said they just need to resubmit the claim because “the previous member number on file was incorrect” This has been going back and forth since then and today I got a notice that my debt was sold to collections while my claim was just resubmitted last week. I can’t afford to pay the debt. What can I do?
