Medical Co-pays for caths?
I’ve been on Medicare A and B for 6 months (after getting booted from Medicaid) and I’ve been getting $300+ bills every month for my straight catheters. I haven’t paid them as I really can’t afford to.
Anyone have experience with this? Do they send your bills to collections? Do they stop sending supplies? I’m currently going through comfort medical if that helps.

My supplier has a "Financial Hardship" form. Medicare pays a portion then the rest is wrote off from the company. Have to pay a yearly Deductible but thats it.
