Phishing - Davis and Associates Representing National Durable Medical

I'm filing this formal complaint regarding what I know is a fraudulent medical debt collection attempted involving a surgery performed by Dr. Jack Schillens at Shasta Orthopedics on 4.18.2019, this company stated they had my social security number and that we owed a company named National Durable Medical a total of $9,900.95 for the following equipment of SCD's, A shoulder sling, and an Ice machine that was used regarding my shoulder surgery. I was contacted regarding this alleged medical debt, and they stated that we are currently going to be sewed with a judgement if we do not pay them immediately, they stated they sent a written demand exactly 60 days ago, we've received nothing at all in the mail, they stated they would take a settlement as little as 4,000 and that they would provide proof of the bill's from National Durable Medical once the settlement agreement was handled until then they would not give us proof of anything. They provided a false account number for National Durable Medical of NDM166541-1, they stated that if we did not pay them they would file suit. In California the statue of limitations on medical debt is 4 years this alleged debt is from 2019. We strongly dispute this alleged debt and the claim that we are financially responsible for anything they stated we were provided. I'm requesting proof that these devices were even provided to us at all, that we agreed to purchase or use them or even rent them, and that any legitimate debt exists. A verbal accusation is not sufficient evidence of this and they are refusing to provide the information, we are under no financial obligation. What concerns us even more is that these individuals used my social security number without my authorization. I did not knowingly provide this information to them, and I am extremely concerned about how they acquired it, how it is being used, and whether my identity and personal medical information have been compromised. I believe this situation raises serious concerns about potential identity theft unauthorized use of my protected personal health information and seriously deceptive practices on the collection of alleged medical debt. I'm requesting the following: Immediate investigation into this companies' collection practices and the legitimacy of this alleged debt. Complete written documentation proving that I agreed to purchase and/or rent the equipment in question, including any signed agreements and proof that it was delivered or provided to me. An itemized explanation of the approximately 10,000 in debt that is being demanded. A written explanation of how this company obtained my social security number and what safeguards are in place to protect my information. Written confirmation that collections activity has been stopped until this company provides legal supporting demanded documentation. Correction of all inaccurate information they company has furnished to any credit reporting agencies. This is deeply disturbing that a company would attempt to collect approx.. 10,0000 dollars for medical equipment allegedly associated with a surgery performed in 2019 while possessing my sensitive information without my permission or my knowledge or authorization. I'm requesting formal response, a investigation and conformation that my personal information will not be misused. I also intend to report these concerns to the appropriate federal and state consumer protection authorities, I want all cancellation of any unsupported debt, written verification that I do not owe the disputed amount if the company cannot provide or substantiate the claim, i want immediate cessation of improper collection efforts and a full explanation of how my social security number was illegally obtained and used.
