Is US Acute Care Solutions legitimate or a scam?

Is US Acute Care Solutions legitimate or a scam?

I visited the ER on March 10th, 2024, for severe symptoms, and while I’m grateful for the treatment received, I’ve since received multiple medical bills. These include charges from ImagineSoftware for a chest x-ray, Clinical Pathology Associates for IV treatment, and the hospital for various services like imaging, laboratory work, pharmacy, EKG, and ER services.

Now, I’m also receiving texts from US Acute Care Solutions demanding payment of $450.20. They’re asking for my birth date and the last four digits of my SSN to view bill details, which I’m reluctant to provide without more information about the company.

Has anyone dealt with US Acute Care Solutions before? This situation seems like a potential healthcare scam to me.

Ask the hospital over the phone. I don’t know anything about USACS directly, however many hospitals outsource their medical billing needs to other outside organizations instead of managing them internally. If this is one of the ones they utilize, they will be able to let you know.

Call the hospital and ask them. Idk anything personally about USACS, but a lot of hospitals use a variety of outside medical billing companies rather than handling them in house. And they will be able to tell you if this is one of the ones they use.

@Val
I tried that first before posting here but I just got sent to their outsourced billing department and they had no information about it to share (they said they weren’t sure).

they have to be a scam. First I got emails with a link, which I did NOT click and Blocked the number. Then I got another email that I also blocked. Then I got a bill in the mail, called the number got put on hold for a long time. Called the hospital who didn’t know anything.

They are an ER staffing company. You hospital contracts with them to run the ED. I work for them. They suck. They have a monopoly in my town. I’m stuck.

This happened to me and I’m stuck on what to do… am i just supposed to pay it so it doesn’t fuck up my credit or there is a solution

backstory: i have no insurance and this was an emergency visit call, my boyfriend made for a suicide attempt. Cops broke in from my front door and took me to the hospital in the back of their car after making me sign things stating they came and there was no problem detected… they still took me

MyChart Online it states i only owe - $163.40

A letter i received in mail directly from the Hospital is charging me - $222.32

US Acute Care Solutions letter i received in mail is charging me - $985.00

Which one do i pay?
