      They already have the barebones amount of information that the hospital provided due to the privacy application you signed. If you request an itemized list to the agency, the hospital is able to provide it. You’re trying to find a gotcha and doubling down on your misinformation which ultimately is your potential future problem and not mine. I’m just trying to protect others from your ignorance.

          Yes. I have disputed medical debt and known others who have done it successfully. Literally requesting an itemized list is often followed up with an itemized list. Sometimes they dont care enough to request it especially since sometimes there can be a fee. But either way it’s insanely weak advice and perpetuates misinformation. There are much better avenues to dispute the debt.
