Debts from visit to ER
Posted: Mon Sep 16, 2013 5:57 pm
Good afternoon,
I am writing on behalf of my girlfriend who recently needed emergency medical services, including two ER trips and an stay at an Neuro-ICU in Atlanta, GA. She is currently now in major debt, as she owes $40,000 for one ER visit and one-night stay in the NeuroICU, a 1680$ bill for ambulance service, $600 for the second ER visit, and $477$for an echocardiogram that the hospital ordered to check for a heart murmur. She recently moved in the last 2 months to Georgia from Ohio to be with me and just got a hostess job at a restaurant in DeKalb County, so she has very little income. We need advice on how to proceed with these bills; if there is anything like Charity Care or if we can apply for Medicaid or anything at all. She is only 25 years old and has no familial support. Please help us and reply ASAP. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Wishing you a pleasant weekend,
