Is Capio Partners a scam?

They’re legit. According to the Better Business Bureau (BBB), Capio Partners, LLC was founded and incorporated in January 2008. The BBB established a profile page for Capio in June 2008. The BBB lists Capio Partners as a collection agency and business service. Buzzfile estimates Capio Partners’ annual revenue at $3 million and the size of its headquarters staff at 25 employees.

According to its website, Capio “represents decades of experience in healthcare, finance, technology, and customer service.” Capio states that “compassion is what sets them apart and enables them to meet the ever-changing needs of… clients and their patients.”

Capio trademarked the term “Complaintless Collections™” and provides financial rewards to account agents who maintain clean records. Nevertheless, the business has accrued a solid history of consumer complaints.

Who does Capio Partners collect for?

Capio Partners works exclusively with hospitals and other healthcare service providers. Capio is not only a debt collector but also a debt purchaser. Capio is “the largest purchaser of healthcare receivables in the country and offers healthcare providers immediate cash acceleration after accounts have been designated as bad debt.”

Capio utilizes a “patient-focused culture,” with a“core business dedicated to helping patients resolve their healthcare accounts.” Capio uses expertise “in consumer finance and the patient revenue cycle” and innovation to transform “the patient financial journey” using “best-in-class” technology, patient education, and a “commitment to consumer finance regulations, technology, and industry compliance.”

The Capio website does not provide a lot of detailed information about their business practices. Instead, the focus is on how Capio’s debt purchasing capability can provide financial benefits to medical and healthcare providers, including “turning unpaid, dormant accounts into a new, consistent revenue stream” and providing “accelerated cash flow at any point after accounts have been written off to bad debt.” Capio offers their clients additional benefits, including never reselling accounts, “no legal action taken against patients, guaranteed exclusive buy-back rights, and a contract opt-out clause.”

Capio Partners states that it is “100% government compliant” with Medicare insurance billing regulations, accelerated cost reporting, and 501(r) regulations. However, their Resources page is directed exclusively at clients, and their website does not provide any links or references to consumer protection resources, laws, or enforcement agencies.

Can Capio Partners Sue Me or Garnish My Wages?

It is illegal for a debt collector to make empty threats to sue you or garnish your wages. It is also unlikely Capio would sue you for a debt you may not owe or they cannot validate. However, debt collection agencies are known to have summoned debtors to court and garnish wages after a default judgement. Contacting an attorney BEFORE this could possibly happen would be a smart move. We’ve helped thousands of consumers fight back against unscrupulous debt collection harassers.

Can you help me file a No Fee Lawsuit against Capio Partners ?

Absolutely.  You can sue a debt collector. Here is a Sample Case Complaint:

In 2017, a proposed class action claimed Capio Partners, LLC violated federal debt collection and telemarketing laws by using an automatic phone dialing system to place non-emergency calls to consumers in attempts to collect on alleged debts. Filed in Florida, the complaint says the defendant, “the largest healthcare asset manager in the country,” made numerous calls to the plaintiff’s cell phone in an effort to collect on a debt despite being informed by the man that he was not the intended recipient of the calls.

Although the details of most of the complaints on the BBB’s profile page for Capio Partners are unavailable for public viewing, many complaints cite problems resulting from disputes about the accuracy of information reported to the credit reporting agencies and allegations of rude and overly aggressive collection staff. In October 2019, a complainant stated that Capio had “falsely reported a collection account” on his credit report. According to the complainant, Capio had reported to the credit reporting agencies that he had an outstanding collection account with them. However, the complainant stated that he had “not received any communication from them nor from the original creditor,” a radiology lab. He said he had not been contacted either by phone, mail, or email, and that he only “found out about this account because he was in the process of obtaining a mortgage.” The complainant stated that Capio had reported an outstanding debt of over $500.00, but he did not understand “how something can be reported as a collection account without even being given proper proof that an account is indeed his responsibility” in the first place. In addition, the complainant stated that “according to his credit report, this collection account was opened in August 2019 and reported to the credit reporting agencies in October 2019,” which meant that there had been “absolutely no communication from Capio at all.” He alleged that Capio Partners was liable for reporting false, derogatory information to the credit reporting agencies” without complying with the legal requirements of the FDCPA or the Fair Credit Reporting Act. In its response, Capio stated that “in light of…the complaint, the account has been closed, credit reporting agencies notified to delete any relevant trade lines, and that Capio will make no further attempts to contact the complainant regarding this account.”

In October 2019, a complainant stated that she had “been mistreated on the phone and had had her credit report checked without her permission.” According to the complainant, she had “received a… past due bill from Capio” for over $7,000.00 for medical bills that she said she “had been paying monthly directly to the hospital.” She said she had “called right away to see if she could work out payment arrangements. Unfortunately, the Capio representative was one of the rudest, most disrespectful persons she had ever spoken with.” She said she had offered to make payment arrangements  of $100 per month, but the Capio representative told her that she “needed to either pay $6,000.00 immediately or make 6 monthly payments of $1,200.00 each, … or she would have her credit score greatly affected.” She said she could not afford payments of that size. In response, the Capio representative “put her on hold, did a check of her credit, … then …told her that …he knew she had any number of credit cards that she could use to make the payments.” The complainant said she was shocked that Capio would suggest putting the debt on a credit card and felt she shouldn’t “be penalized because she has credit.” She asked whether Capio “would …have worked out a more reasonable payment plan” if she “had not had any cards with credit available.” She said that the Capio representative “simply continued to threaten her credit score if she didn’t give him a credit card,” and that she “felt bullied, patronized, and that this is a very shady way to do business.”

Also, in 2017, a proposed class action claimed Capio Partners, LLC violated federal debt collection and telemarketing laws by using an automatic phone dialing system to place non-emergency calls to consumers in attempts to collect on alleged debts. Filed in Florida, the complaint said the defendant, “the largest healthcare asset manager in the country,” made numerous calls to the plaintiff’s cell phone in an effort to collect on a debt despite being informed by the man that he was not the intended recipient of the calls.

The FCRA regulates how collection agencies and creditors report delinquent debts to credit reporting agencies. Additional consumer protection laws include the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act (CFPA).

Can I sue Capio for harassment?

Yes. If you want to enforce your rights, or recover money for violations — you need to sue. Federal laws provide individuals like you with a means to seek monetary damages in court. For example, the FDCPA allows consumers who have been violated to recover damages of up to $1,000, plus attorney fees and court costs.

  • Mickey A

    Recieved a bill from capio for a 2015 hospital bill. I have never received a bill from this hospital and both the hospital and insurance carrier state that the account is 4 years old and they will ” will have to track it down”. Meanwhile I told capio to forward the bill. The silence is deafening. meanwhile capio is threatening to screw my credit score up.

  • Antonio S

  • Caela

    I received a bill from Capio partners for 2,000.00+ and had no clue what it was. I told them I wanted it in writing. About a month later I get a letter explaining who the original creditor was and that the itemization was attached. It was from 2013-2015 and portions that apparently by insurance companies did not pay. I have never received any bills from the original creditor, it doesn’t say what these medical visits were for and how am I supposed to go back to old insurance companies and dispute coverage????

  • Jerry L

    I have Capio Partners on my credit report and I am not sure why it’s on there and if it is mine I would make payments. Thanks 🙂

  • Sad I

    Called Capio and asked to a manager. Was put to Sara. Proceeded to give me a settlement on an outstanding alledged medical bill. when I told her that I cant afford to pay nearly $400 a week in a medical bill her attitude (which was already fast talking) in tone turned rude. I hung up on her. The law needs to be more to help the consumers than the predators.

  • Sandra

    Capio wanted my date of birth and ss #. When I refused to give that information ( fear of identity theft). They hung up on me. Then sent it to collections. I never received any bill or information. I also requested indigent care form from Physician Group (original company). Never heard back from anyone. Next thing I know It’s on my credit report two times.

  • Lindsay M

    I called Capio last week and spoke with Brad and asked 3 questions since I was informed that this company was on my credit report. 1st – what company sent this to them 2nd – how much was owed and 3rd – if I were to pay today (the day I called) could I get a letter of deletion. Brad went into the scripted statement that I’m sure they are told to read and said they could send me something to reflect the account was paid and would come off in the 30-45 day cycle after it is updated with the 3 bureaus. I’ve not received anything from them since. Is this just a lie to get payment on an account and they will say anything?

  • Robert K

    I have Capio Partners reporting to the credit bureau about me but I have no idea what they are and why I owe money to them . They will not stop calling me while I’m working and I just want this removed whatever it is. BTW….. I have never been written to , to let me know I owe anything to these people. How can they report this without contacting me?

  • Richard H

    I paid off my debit for medical collections on 12/2017.. But you didn’t remove it from my credit report. Please do a rapid release. This is needless suffering on my part. Thank You

  • Barbara

    I am disputing a claim I received from Capio Partners. I was sent a bill for $303 and I have no idea what this is for, it is impacting my credit rating which went from Excellent to Good because of this. What can I do to get additional information, I will pay what I owe but I’m not paying anyone any amount unless the debt is mine and I know what it is for.

  • Michael R

    Female called on 10/22/2018 @ or around 11:00 AM. Asked my name and knew my birthdate. I did not answer yes but asked her who she was and what business it was. She did not tell me her name or company she was with but only said there was business to discuss. Asked her again and the same answer was all I got. I felt it was a scam and hung up. Called back this morning 10/23/2018 at 9:00AM and it was Capio but a man answered and his name was Eric. They number they called from was from Jacksonville, Fl (904)685-6465.

  • LEAH F
