<prompt> Human: I have had Crohns Disease for about twelve years. Over the years I have taken various medications for this disease. The past year I started a new medication because previous medications failed. The medicine costs 19,000.00 per dose. I have to have the medication infused every two months.This medication was recommended by my doctor and they enrolled me in a financial assistance program offered by the pharmaceutical company that makes the drug. I would only have to pay 50.00 a dose. Ive had six doses. I believe someone in the hospitals billing department has been billing my insurance, because my insurance does not cover it. They should have been billing the pharmaceutical company. I have been receiving bills for months stating I owe 40,000.00 for two doses of the medication. I was instructed by the doctors office to ignore those and that they are working on resolving this issue. I still received calls and bills in the mail. The issue hasnt been resolved for months.Friday I received a letter in the mail by a collections agency saying they WILL get this money out of me. Hence the collections has been my debt.Some important notes... I have documentation stating Im enrolled in the pharmaceutical, by the pharmaceutical company, companys financial assistance program, I have documentation and emails from the doctors office stating that I shouldnt have to pay those bills, they are working on the issue, and to just ignore it. I was told I only have to pay 50.00 per dose, and cannot be expected to pay 19,000.00 for medication. Im getting married next month and need advice.TL;DR: I have a collections agency coming over me for something I am not supposed to be paying.Please advise.  <response>: You should contact the doctor and hospital and work to get it resolved on their end now. There may be program stipulations on the pharmaceutical end that may make them not pay or subsidize the doctorhospital if you continue to delay. I know the doctor told you to ignore it and work was being done to resolve it. That clearly hasnt happened and you need to know they are actually doing something about it.
