Frequently Asked Questions
Medical bills are complicated, but with Resolve, they don’t have to be. We make it easy to put medical bills behind you. Here’s how our process works:
- Use our signup form to tell us more about your bills and the care you received. We can help with any bills where your remaining owed amount is above $5,000.
- Your Advocate will then dive into the details of your situation and create a customized plan to maximize your savings and organize your bills. They’ll also take over communications with the hospital and insurance companies so you can focus on living your life. We’ll keep you updated along the way to ensure you always know what’s going on.
- Once we’ve secured savings for you, you’ll receive a discounted bill, which you’ll pay directly with the hospital. Finally, you’ll receive Resolve’s bill which is based off a percentage of your total savings.
Your situation is unique, and your path to savings will be too. We’ll learn as much as we can about your situation and look at every potential solution to formulate a customized solution to get you the most savings possible.
Often we’ll use one or a combination of the following three methods:
- Insurance Appeals: We will review your policy and EOBs when necessary to make sure nothing was missed. When applicable, we’ll contact your insurance company and handle the appeals process for claims wrongfully denied.
- Financial Aid: Most hospitals offer help for patients with enormous bills. We’ll look to see if there are any options available to you here.
- Negotiations: We’ll review your bills for errors, duplicate charges, and inflated pricing. Then, we’ll go to bat for you to ensure you don’t pay more than you should. We’ll escalate your case as high as the CFO or CEO of the hospital if that’s what it takes!

B) In most cases, the amount a person owes is significantly lowered and we find payment plans for people to pay back what they owe over time and within their budget. For those who can’t afford our services or want to do it themselves, we provide a library of online resources, including our Medical Debt guide, to help people do it themselves. We also offer significantly discounted rates for the most financially vulnerable.
