I receive calls from 800 455 7777, several times weekly.  Something about hospital bills.  I don't have Obama Care, so how would I have any hospital care.

It's all BS. They called about a hospital bill but the thing is I'm 19 and I've never been in the hospital, and have no bill to paid at a hospital.

From what I can determine it is from Baptist Hospital accounts receivable department. They said it was pertaining to a recent hospital visit. No one here has been in the hospital so don't know how they got my number unless the call was just misdialed. The name did not show on the caller I.D., just the number but I looked it up on the internet.

I get the same message, calling regarding a important personal matter...no name or number just a pre-recorded message

5th time, I called back a rather plausible lady answered, told her I was getting calls to someone not at this number. She apparently had caller id as she looked it up, told me who they were trying to reach. Told her the person was not here and she apologized and said the number would be removed from their call base. Haven't had a call in 2 wks now.

I had the same call.  First time I tried to call it just rang and rang.  Decided to call again and everything was legit.  But what I find stupid is they had me on the phone when I answered the first time.  Why not just talk to me then.  It is rather unprofessional to me not to at least identify the company.  Basicall they wanted to set up a payment plan.  I told them I pay all my accounts in full.  When she asked when I would make another payment I said when I get another bill.  Come on people.  I would find another billing company if I was the hospital...very unprofessional.

Becca don't feel alone I got the number 800-455-7777 and no name as to who called. I feel that if it was important they would have told me their name!! But I just keep in mind what I was taught as a child. And that is to not talk to a stranger. So they wish to not leave name that to me is a stranger

I feel the same way that Becca. That if was a important message I think that they should be willing to leave their name. You know I was told as a child to not talk to strangers so to me that  is who this odd number belongs to.

The company and number appear to be legit.  I called back and got right through to a live person.  They were calling about a hospital bill I had paid over two weeks earlier (well before the due date).  I looked up the check and told her when it had been cashed. The ladies were very polite and said that obviously they just hadn't received the updated information from the bank.  Felt kind of insulted and inconvenienced because I had paid my bill.  But this is what you can get when you pay a third party instead of the provider directly.  This company bills and receives payments for medical providers who don't handle their own billing. I have sent them payments before with no problems. I have handled hundreds of medical insurance claims and bills over 40 years, and doctor's offices and hospitals are the world's worst at screwing them up.  Always pay them by check so you can prove they got your payment!  My check was not cashed in Paducah, where I sent it, but in the city where the hospital is located, so ABS must have sent the check to the hospital.  Go figure.

I think this number is calling from Paducah Credit Bureau Systems.

This number keeps calling me, but will not say who they are. It is a pre-recorded message "I am calling regarding an important personal matter". I'm sorry, but if you can't tell me WHO you are and WHY you are calling, what makes you think I will call you back? These people are stupid

Automated message that said they were calling about my bill for my recent hospital visit and gave this number twice. Attempted to call the number and got a busy signal.

Recorded message to our office number said they were calling about our recent hospital visit and to call back as soon as possible. Didn't say who they are or who they were calling to speak to.  Repeated number twice - 1-800-455-7777. Google shows this number for ABS - Accounts Billing Service - medical debt collection service with offices in Lexington, Paducah, and Owensboro, Kentucky and in Clarksville, Tennessee. Sorry for them that their recorded message won't generate a response from a real person on our end.

This number has called several times over the past month but I never answer unknown calls. If it says 800 I just ignore it.

called 2x and the same old "important business matter" bs.

same as above, message that says "I am calling regarding an important personal business matter." I did try the number and got a recording that said I had reached the accounts payable desk and to leave my name and account number and someone would call me back! I have no idea who the people are or what company they might be calling about!
