After reading these posts it all comes together.  I recently (2 wks) got a bill from Lowell General, Lowell Ma.  Now this number starts calling.  The only difference is it was a live person, using my name that left the messages with no callers name.
The poor hospital needs my $200. to complete their new wing!  Very unprofessional

it is a collection agency for lgh

received call on my cell dont know who it is but not calling it.dont want my phone hacked to get info.

Hit a message from these clowns again!

I just received this message -- first time.  Went online to reverse directory and ended up on this site.  Glad I did.  I get totally annoyed when I am 'delinquent' for a medical bill when the provider is the one who sends it out months and months after the service.  If it takes them 6 months to send me an invoice than I will take 6 months to pay it off and I will do it in dribs and drabs (doesn't matter what the amount is). I never pick up an 800 call or a number I don't recognize.  And because of HIPAA laws they don't identify themselves?  That is ridiculous and all the more reason why I will not return the call. I did exactly what a previous person said.....I went to Verizon and blocked the number.  

Same issues asbelow.  This is not a legit company or they wouldleave their name.

I got a call this morning , Sept 05, 2013, from 800 416 6072, they left a message saying the is not a marketing call, please call. I called left no message and waited to see what would happen. It then said press 0 for more help, I did, a lady answered and I asked her the name of the company and told her it was rude they don't say who they are. She said that is because of the HIPAA Laws, it is a MEDICAL BILLING COMPANY, they do billing for different hospitals

This is not a scam. It's a medical collection agency. Called me re: a lab bill from Lowell General Hospital. Insurance group # was typed wrong and insurance declined it. Gave her the correct # and it was paid.

The best way to handle phone calls... is to do what I am in the process of doing...(if you can)... take the plug out of the wall for a home phone..  .. and or do not give out ones phone number to anyone.. tell them you do not have a phone when asked

Stop calling me without identifying yourself. I will not call you back if you don't identify yourself first

Our business got a call from this numer this morning looking for someone.  Only the last name was intelligible, which is weird, because no one who works here with that last name (and we have several) has a difficult first name.  I blocked our company's number and called the number back.  A message thanked me for calling "the business office" and wanted me to put in a home phone number.  Well, they didn't call a home phone number so I didn't put any in.  I was put on hold forever because no one was available to take my call, even though their stupid autodialer just called our company.  I finally got another message, this time, thanking me for calling the "hospital's business office."  Okay, what hospital doesn't identify their office by name??  I left a message for them to call back, asking them why they're calling our company, and I couldn't understand their message as to who they're supposed to be looking for.  All I know is, our company doesn't owe any hospitals any money

leave automated voice mail calls every 2 - 3hrs

They just leave automated message telling you call back but do not say who they are or represent. That is always a sign of a sleazy outfit. They are calling for collections in Massachusetts and Rhode Island for medical bills.

This was for an emergency room copay for LGH which I know I owed but did not receive a bill in the mail, They were very pleasant and knew the whole story about this bill for 50 bucks. I paid it and that was the end of it.   Not a scam

Looks like several people got calls from this number and not a single one of them has had a consistent outcome. I pay all my bills on time and and don't owe anyone. I was told this was "not a sales call or not a telemarking call but it very important that you get back to us at ..." If someone needs to get in touch with me that badly, they can send me a certified letter. Otherwise, I'm going to my Verizon account now  and blocking this number and suggest you do the same with your carrier.

Even I got this call today. Even I think this might be something t do with Medical bills. I had a visit in the Tufts Medical hospital like 6 months ago, WAY back in February. This might be regarding it

It's not a scam..just a hospital collection co. I almost hung up when it asked for my home no. but I was too curious as to what it was..It was a hosp bill that is not even 30 days out yet. She asked if I would like to clear up my balance with a credit or debit card. Aside from the fact that I made a partial payment on the hosp. website 2 days ago, I told her that if they refuse to indentify themselves when they call me that under no circumstances would I give her a credit card over the phone!

please dont have them contact me anymore because this a big scam thanks.

Oh gosh, after reading your post, I'm afraid maybe it's not what I think.  I will never give out personal info on the phone (had that credit card scam call me once before and they got nothing out of me).  I guess I'll try calling now and see what they say.

I got a call asking for my 6 year-old son on the message.  I called back and same thing as above, had to wait then was told to leave a vmail (which I did not).  I imagine it's regarding a doctor visit that Harvard Pilgrim/United Health has not paid yet.  I've been back and forth with them so much about previous coverage, and send in the documentation now 3 times and all this time I'm getting billed for a visit for me for over $700 and one for my son for over $100.  I called the billing office and they told me I need to call the insurance because they don't re-bill something.  So I will and they better not give me any crap because this stuff is covered and they need to pay the claims.  

Good luck, everyone.

I got a call and it told me to call this number. So after reading all of these posts I decided to put in a random extension. I got a man named Johnathon. I asked him what this is and why i was meant to call. He said my full name and said he was at the hospital I had attended at one time. I asked him why he was calling and he said he needed my date of birth and my address before he could disclose any information. I told him no, and asked where he is located. After going back and forth a few times he gave me a P.O. box I asked what town (I wanted to see if he would say it, i know what town it is in) and he finally said the right town. But anyone could Google the name and figure it out. I declined to give him any information and that was it. I do have some bills from this hospital (i've received 8 for two visits because insurance is being funky) I'm going to call (the actual hospital) and figure out why they have this information... most likely someone got a hold on some information and once they have your address and DOB they most likely charge visits to you.

I just got a call from Adam from this number, but he claimed to be from Boston Medical Center - BE CARFULL this is totally a SCAM to get your information!!!

I got the sane voice mail as all the rest. I called right back and used ###_###_#### as my number. After a few minutes on hold, i was asked to leave a message. I gave them a wrong number. :D

just got a call from them on my cell (i let it go to vmail bc I screen calls I don't recognize the number from) and they said they wanted my son (they said his name) to call this number. my son is 15 months old!  I called and got "thank you for calling the business office, if you know the 4 digit ext of the person you'd like to speak w, press 1.  otherwise press 2. i pressed 2.  it asked for my home telephone #.  That's where I hung up.  It's got to be a scam.

Roger Willams hospital credit department. Rhode Island

I called them back and she asked my number, i gave her my number and she could not find my name for my number i have. Then she asked my last name, then i figured that it is some scam doing company. i asked them to send me whatever my hospital bill they have on my home mailing address.
She said they work for several hospitals. I donno how much that was correct. Doubtful !!!!

Glad I read these posts...had to go to the local walk in for a series of TB implants requested by the State for a healthcare program I was taking...paid by debit card the days x 2 of services. Got a bill in the mail several months later for respiratory treatments...???.... Called them about it...now it's on me to prove it...are you f%#$ing kidding me???? REALLY???...that's what mine is all about...a bill for services I did NOT have!!!!...good luck to me right???...lol.
