I had an ER visit back in Dec 2024 and I got a bill yesterday for 1000$. On my insurance app (MI Medicaid) it says I owe 0$ and the claim was denied but I still got a bill. Am I responsible to pay this bill still? I submitted a claim with my insurance because it was an emergency and at night no urgent cares were open. It’s Sunday so nothing is open and nobody else I can talk to right now. What should I do?

Hello all, I am here hoping to find some clarity as to what happened and if I did anything wrong. For context I am chronically ill and have ESRD (end stage renal disease), I am on dialysis 3 times a week, awaiting a kidney transplant. For the last 3 years I have had Medi-Cal and it was handled through California DPSS. This has been the case since I applied. Even when I went into kidney failure and went on dialysis, my medi-cal was still handled by DPSS. I even subsequently applied for Social Security Disability and still my Medi-cal was handled through DPSS. I was just hospitalized last month for a week, so I know that my insurance was definitely still active at that point. Well today, I called my PCP to make an appt and was told my insurance was no longer active. After HOURS of standing in line at the DPSS office, I find out that my medi-cal was transferred to Social Security at the end of March - Without giving me any notice: not even so much as a letter. I’m baffled… I now have to restart the process of picking out a medical group and all that stuff… how did this happen?? Why?? And did I do something wrong????

This happened a bit over a year ago. I was driving my girlfriend and her coworker to work and pulled over near the curb to let them out, at the same time another driver starts backing up so I lay on the horn but he hits my car my girlfriend and her coworker both were still in the car when it happened and saw everything. We get out and they are not communicating at all and possibly didn't speak english. Police were called and they didn't show up for over an hour and he eventually started trying to drive off. I follow through for half a block and he stops and backs up into me again. His "son-in-law" came after I guess they called him and he started trying to gaslight me into believing I hit him and theres no proof and that police aren't going to come. LOL. Police eventually pulled up and the other driver started to feign a heart attack or something. They even called the ambulance and the EMT didn't look pleased... I got the police report, report states: **"V1 STATES HE WAS PARKED WHEN V2 WAS REVERSING INTO A PARKING SPOT COLLIDED CAUSING DAMAGE TO FRONT BUMPER. V2 STATES HE WAS TRYING TO TAKE A PARK IN SPOT WHEN HE COLLIDED INTO V1. V2 CLAIMS THAT V1 WAS NOT THERE ARE THE TIME HE WAS REVERSING. V2 DRIVER WAS TRANSPORTED TO BOOTH MEMORIAL FOR CHEST PAINS. PO DIDN'T WITNESS"**. I got the insurance info and drivers info from the police report, called their insurance to make a claim. They instructed me to go to this auto shop and get a quote for damages, went there, the shop said they will call me about the quote. I never heard from the body shop again even after calling them they said they'll send it and never did, the insurance company never again picked up my calls after weeks of calling. I have liability insurance, with Geico and they said to file the claim with their insurance. This is in NYC, the other driver had NY plates but insured by a NJ company "Plymouth Rock Auto Insurance" Due to my girlfriend and I living together, Geico requested me to add her as a secondary driver, I told them she does not even have a license to drive and of course never drive my car. They sent numerous letters and emails about this. Each time I replied online and called in to explain that to them, they acknowledged and I thought that was over. They ended up dropping me, and I didn't even realize for nearly a month and then I was fined by NY for driving without insurance. Paid the penalty and started looking for other insurance. Nobody was willing to cover me due to a gap in coverage, possibly the accident being reported, etc. I was only offered to be insured by GEICO AGAIN LOL. They doubled my rate for liability insurance nearly $400 a month and I've been paying that since. Need advice on how to get what I'm owed for the damages they caused to my car.

Alright here we go. So July forth I was going down a back road (rainy) as I cut the corner I see this Tahoe coming at me at a 90 degree angle (she lost control) and just smashes into me. I didn’t have insurance on this car I had it’s one of my cars I don’t drive often, but with all the pictures and you can clearly see it’s her fault farmers insurance is still denying that’s it her fault I’m at total loss of words (no dash cam) I’m not going down without a fight or a payout so I’m consulting a injury lawyer but is this how it really goes? The pictures her car is just layed smashed into my car and they say it wasent her fault?

Has anyone had their Geico premium suddenly jump after switching from pay in full to monthly payments? I changed the billing method thinking it would just add a small fee but then got a new declaration with a much higher rate of 25% increase. Support says it was unrelated and just part of a regular rate adjustment but the timing feels off. I didn’t change anything else in my policy and my neighbors didn’t see any increase. Curious if others experienced this or if it’s worth escalating.

So, I bought a car (my first ever car beside what was passed down to me) in Dec 2024, mind you I'm not a very materialistic guy when it comes to cars, so year did not mean much to me. The reason I bought the car was that my 74 chevy deluxe gave out and I needed a car asap for work. I am 24, My credit score at the time was a 686 and is slowly going higher. With no cosigner, my age, credit and job that makes me 40k yearly I figured APR would be a bit high but not this high especially for the car I received. Now for the car loan info:2007 corolla 56k miles at $11k Total car loan was I believe 20k for the 72 months The interest rate is 24.10% (prior to signing anything the salesmen stated it was only 12%, I should have read more but I was over the lengthy session, Lesson learned sadly) The loan is through AmericanCreditAcceptance. Anything with American, I know I am being screwed potentially. As the guy was shining through my foolishness, he stated I could have refinanced withing 4-6 mths after purchase if i wanted to but fear of looking more foolish is preventing me to do so. Should I be looking to refinance, and if so, how do I go about doing that? [A](https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/?f=flair_name%3A%22Auto%22)

I am wondering if anyone has figured out the best insurance available in ohio that is budget friendly? I use to have medicaid but they kicked me off a few months ago and ever since I've been on this healthcare marketplace insurance with united healthcare but in still struggling with paying it and living my life lol... I have omnipod and dexcom g7 and they barely cover that... I'm also wondering if it would help to find separate insurance from my spouse? Or just to stay on the same insurance?

Townhouse covered by condo insurance. Pipe in the ground(HOA property) breaks, excavation needed to determine the cause and replace the pipe. Insurance denied repairing the pipe due to wear and tear which is understandable,, but shouldn't they pay the excavation which was needed to determine the cause? There was other damage that was covered. Montana condo policy. Back up water/sewer damage coverage on the HOA policy.

I have a 2015 Toyota RAV4 and I still owe 12,000 on the vehicle, Just got it last year. with that being said I was in an accident on 3/6 and their insurance company wants to claim the vehicle as a total loss... my question is what if they don't give me enough to cover the loan? I am pretty stressed because the accident was not my fault at all. it is going to liberty mutual does anyone have any idea?

Hello everyone, a couple of days ago I was involved in an accident where I was merging and hit a car that was in my Blindspot. I feel awful but I maintain that I did everything I could to avoid it. I checked over my shoulder. I use my blinker, my car has lane assist. The car that hit me just came out of nowhere. I took my car to an auto body repair shop that is owned by a family friend and they quoted my total repair at $7600. progressive told me that if the cost to repair my vehicle is 50% of my cars total value that they will just total it.. I do not want my car totaled as it’s almost paid off and I don’t think it’s even that damaged I could just replace the passenger door on my own and be done with it, I owe about $1700 on my car and progressive also told me that if they total it that the bank might take my car!! I would rather just go pay off my car and fix the door myself. Can anybody give me an input or help? To make matters worse my husband is active duty and we are leaving in 8 weeks across the country. I feel sick
