      Legal Banking Theft

      Banking I thought that when a customer used a debit card, pin based or signature, the "approval" meant the account was a "good" account, ie, not a stolen card, or a fake of some kind. I did not think the store's approval system and the number told the store or the customer whether there was...

      Hospital collections

      Hospital Bills You should make sure you DISPUTEdenial of the claim and follow all plan rules on disputing denied claims. Very often, there are two or more different addresses and if you send your dispute to the wrong place, it doesn't count, the ins co won't forward and no action will be taken...

      Illegal Garnishing Practices?

      Parents' issues Look, I'm no expert, but when a judgement is received and a bank account is levied/garnished, the bank merely responds to the court order, directing the removal of the funds, up to and including the amount of the debt. The bank has no way of knowing ( or at least the bank's...

      Here is a Great Idea

      Mr Knight Number One, whether we agree with Mr Knight or not, he does have some valid points. When credit cards changed from an elite club to serving the masses, most of us bought into them. The economy was better, jobs more secure, employee health plans at their zenith....and we were probably...

      Gf medical bills

      GF medical bills I will it look it up, since this is all from memory. I think it's case law and guidance more than specific cites from Hill-Burton and other federal legislation.

      Gf medical bills

      GF medical bills Hospitals routinely do not supply an itemised bill at the time of service. A consumer must wait for it in the mail.Therefore, there is no way for an uninsured consumer to know what the bill is, at the time of service. Routinely, most hospitals do NOT inform patients that they...

      Gf medical bills

      Medical bills If your gf is having trouble with the bills, she shoudl immediately contact the hospital and ask to speak to whomever is in charge of Hill-Burton Act funds. This act provided hospitals with federal dollars in exchange for their promise to serve indigents. She can fill out the...

      Steve, I have to say....your posts make me laugh. Some of what you say has merit, the rest is -- well, it's the rest. De gustibus non disputandum est.

      Is this usual?

      You are probably correct about the limited autopsy. I viewed and attended to my husband's body after death and there was no central line or open chest from extraordinary measures. I guess what has bothered me is that Virginia statute calls for an autopsy in the event of sudden death in an...

      Is this usual?

      Thanks.....it's all just such a mess and I certainly wasn't prepared. At least most of the paperwork was in order, and the rest will just be a slow, steady slog up the hill. It was just so shocking and I stood there like an idiot when it was happening and failed to react, as I had been trained...

      Is this usual?

      Of course individuals die from coronary insufficiency and there is no "blame." I did call the PCP when I rec'd the death certificate from the funeral director and asked him how and why he came to sign the certificate. He said that's just what "they do." Nonetheless, I fail to comprehend how he...

      Is this usual?

      Is this unusual? The cause of death was "acute coronary insufficiency." He had no underlying conditions and had been in good health. He was 47. I asked about an autopsy and was told there was no need for one. I just thought it was strange that his own doc signed off on the death certificate...

      Glasser and Glasser

      I didn't know what to do, except notify the creditor and the clerk of the court that he had died. He was never served papers and when I researched the "service" section, nothing was filled in, either to his employer or to him. A process server was responsible for service. The law firm and the...

      Is this usual?

      Of course I did. It's been a month. Is there an apparent reason for your question or am I simply missing the irony?

      What is the name of your state? Virginia My spouse died on 9/19 in an emergency room. The death certificate was signed by his personal physician and not the attending ER physician. I thought this was rather peculiar, so I called the family physician and asked whether he had been called to the...

      Glasser and Glasser

      What is the name of your state? Virginia My spouse died with an outstanding garnishment to Glasser and Glasser of Norfolk VA. He had never been served notice of garnishment through two proceedings, which also were scheduled more than 80 miles from our locale. He had a court date scheduled for...
