Me too! Im starting out young. I owe 175 for an ultra sound, that was the portion insurance didnt cover. I could have paid it off but was lazy... well ill go on ahead and pay now. I also collected a warning for speeding, and a ticket for a stop sign.

I was in a severe car accident April 17, 2019. I had a bruised right lung, punctured, bruised and collapsed left lung, five ribs broken both laterally and longitudinally, C5 fracture, bruised and lacerated liver, ruptured spleen that required removal, lost 5 pints of blood and from what my wife told me, died in the table in the OR twice. Spent five days in ICU. Most of it is hazy and I don’t really recall much about it. I was airlifted from Elizabeth City to Norfolk. There were zero air ambulances available within an hour of here so they had to call VCU in Richmond who transported me. The helicopter bill alone was $58,000. I’m so far in medical debt that my kids will be paying on it after I’m dead. My credit is under 600 due to my inability to pay off over $700,000 in medical bills.

Man that is awful. I'm glad you're ok, but that is a terrible ordeal. I'm assuming you didn't have insurance? Maybe it was said upthread somewhere and I missed it.

Had a thirteen day lapse in BCBS coverage due to my error. I had the monthly payment and money to make it, but forgot. Accident happened in that time period.
