What happened was: I was kneeboarding and I wiped out. The board shot straight up and lacerated my lip, resulting in stitches... as well as about a 4.5-5k $ bill.
They ran cat scans on my brain and jaw.
Now, as you may assume, I've no health insurance. I've just started my new job... part time.
I have really good credit (721 as of earlier Aug. '07) and I don't want to lose it at all. Nor do I want collectors bugging me 24/7, but I really just can't afford to pay all that.
Now, I was told that if you don't pay the bill, it doesn't affect that credit. Is this true? If not, what's my best bet? I've requested a "financial aid form" to see if it'll "help," or whatever.
Thanks in advance!
