collection agency

while checking my credit report. I saw a collection agency had listed a debt I was unware of.
After doing some research. It was a hospital bill. I later found out that the bill was never submitted to my insurance company. The debt was from 2007. And is now posted on my credit report dated 12/2011.
Am I still reliable for a bill the hospital failed to submit? The collection agency nor the hospital can provide me with a detailed bill. I went for a allergic reaction. I huge bill of 1887.00 That's absurd!!!!

Welcome! First, more information is needed before we can help you. Did your address change since December, so the bill could have been lost in the mail? Also, did you go to an Emergency Room?

A sad fact of life in hospitals these days is that uninsured patients will usually be charged more than patients who have insurance-because they don't have the benefit of negotiated rates that those in Employee groups do. Not fair, but it's the way it is.

It's absurd but probably legitimate (the cost, that is). Hospital bills are through the roof.
