- Locator| 1 replyNumber is to various collection agents that work for various hospital accounts.
If you call the number from a different phone number than what the phone call came into, you will get a message that that number is a non-working number. That's the ploy to get you to call back from the number the collection agent has on file.
Once you call from the number they called you on, a person will answer the phone omitting the name of the company. They will not tell you what collection agency they are a part of and will ask you for the number the call was made to. Once you provide that, they can tell you who called you but once again they will not tell you WHY or for WHOM they are calling in regards to.

- LucyCollecting for services performed the week before Christmas at Pardee Hospital in Hendersonville NC. Told him I haven't received a bill, only stuff from my insurance company. He claims they sent a bill January 17 and another February 17.
"Would you like to set up a payment plan?"
"I don't need a payment plan. I need a bill."
"Would you like to pay it now!"
"I'll pay it when I get a bill."
This is on the hospital, IMO. If I get another call, I'll take it up directly with Pardee.- Caller: Doing business for Pardee Hospital

» Your post here will NOT stop the calls. We did not call you. Your caller probably does not read these messages. We cannot block calls to you. We cannot put you on or take you off the list. We do not know who you are, and we do not know your phone number!Click_This_Line_for_Info_About_the_DNC_ListThe National Do Not Call list is respected by legitimate telemarketers, but is ignored by criminal telescammers.
Surveys, charities, political calls, NON-sales calls and certain preexisting business calls are exempt from the DNCL.
Business phones do not qualify for DNCL protection.Click_This_Line_for_Info_About_800Notes_PurposeFind out who is calling and why: Debt collectors, telemarketers, charities, and survey companies often call without leaving a message. Lookup the number to read the previous reports of other users.
Report telemarketing calls: Make the Do Not Call list offenders notice the problem by reporting their practices. No business wants bad publicity.
Report phone fraud: Did someone try to scam you? Reporting the number is the fastest way to make public aware, and prevent others from falling victim to the scam.
Check out a business: Read other users' feedback about the phone number owner.
»YOU are your own best defense against unwanted calls! You can use a call blocking app, device, service or procedure to block such calls.Click_This_Line_for_Methods_to_Block_CallsHere are some tried and true methods for reducing or eliminating repeated spam / scam phone calls:
1. Do not answer the phone if you see an unknown number on your Caller ID ... let it go to answering machine or voicemail. Many telescammers hang up after three or four rings.
2. If you have a smartphone, get one of the inexpensive or free call blocker apps at your online app store, and learn how to use it.
3. If your cell is not "smart", read the manual to learn how to set up a "group". Assign the scammer's phone number to that group. Also assign a "silent ring" to that group. You will not hear future calls from that number.
3a. Alternately, assign a "silent ringtone" as the DEFAULT ringtone. Then, assign your favorite ringtones to friends, family, contacts, businesses, etc. That way, you will not hear your phone ring, even if the scammer changes numbers! (This is also called "whitelisting", and will cause you to miss calls from non-whitelisted numbers, so be careful!)
4. For cell phones or landlines: Contact your phone service provider. They may have a facility or method to allow you to block numbers.
5. For landlines: there are several call blocking devices and services available. Use your favorite search engine to find one.
6. DO NOT call unknown numbers back without checking who called (800notes is your friend)! All that does is verify your number is "live". Instead, read this:

Please reply to this post, to let us know you read it, or have taken suitable actions to protect yourself. - SickAndTiredOfBullshitPhoneCalls replies to lisalouDitto to all! Never been in a North Carolina hospital in my life, and that's a bit over 60 years now. And, I also live in Indiana.
Could also be a collection GROUP that works for several different hospitals, which is why we are getting phone calls in different areas. But, the hospital I generally do my medical business at doesn't work with this collection agency. Oh well. They can send me a paper bill in the mail, so that I have my own paper trail!
