Is PMAB a scam?

They’re legit. According to the Better Business Bureau (BBB), MedA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was founded in 1988 and incorporated in 2003. The BBB opened its file in 1995. Headquartered in Charlotte, NC, MedA is listed as a collection systems company and uses the alternate business names, PMAB, LLC; MedA/Rx; Mylan Pharmaceuticals; Wallace Pharmaceuticals, Inc.; and Meda Consumer Healthcare, Inc. Buzzfile estimates its annual revenue at $10 million and the size of its staff at 85 people.

According to its website, MedA/Rx provides “a new way to think about revenue cycle management for the healthcare financial professional.” MedA/Rx is an Accounts Receivables Management (ARM) and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) company that cites as its strength its dedication to assisting healthcare providers “take a holistic approach to [their] revenue cycle…to…deliver superior results for your bottom line.”

Who does PMAB collect for?

PMAB, LLC collects on behalf of healthcare providers.  MedA/Rx, its parent company, provides services in four areas: extended business office; consulting; data analytics; and collections. Extended business office services are provided through their division known as MedEBO; consulting services are provided through MBOC; data analytics are provided through Medspan Technologies; and third-party collections are provided through PMAB, LLC.

PMAB, LLC “is committed to protecting the public image and reputation of [their] clients while striving to maintain the highest performance rating based on [their] clients’ requirements and expectations.” Their collection staff “adheres to the standards and ethics of the American Collectors Association and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act [FDCPA].” In addition, PMAB “has been approved as a Certified Agency through the ACA International Agency Certification Program.”

The MedA/Rx website is entirely client-facing and does not provide any consumer resources. There is a link to a patient portal that allows site visitors to make payments.

Can PMAB 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 PMAB 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 PMAB LLC?

Absolutely. Here are some Sample Cases filed in Federal Court

In April 2012, in United States District Court, Western District of North Carolina, Charlotte Division, a judge issued an Order in a case alleging PMAB had violated certain provisions of the FDCPA. The plaintiff alleged that PMAB representatives had violated three specific FDCPA provisions: 1692c(c), 1692d, and 1692d(5). The first provision states that if “a consumer notifies a debt collector in writing that the consumer refuses to pay a debt or that the consumer wishes the debt collector to cease further communication with the consumer, the debt collector shall not communicate further with the consumer with respect to such debt.” The second and third provisions state that a “debt collector may not engage in any conduct the natural consequence of which is to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt,” specifically by “[c]ausing a telephone to ring or engaging any person in telephone conversation repeatedly or continuously with intent to annoy, abuse, or harass any person at the called number.” During the April 2012 hearing, PMAB conceded that the plaintiff should be allowed to “bring her action under the second and third sections that PMAB’s collection efforts were abusive, but challenged her standing to pursue a violation of Section 1692c(c).” PMAB argued that because Section 1692a(3) defines a consumer as “any natural person obligated or allegedly obligated to pay any debt,” the plaintiff should not be allowed to bring charges under this section “because [PMAB] never alleged that she was obligated to pay the debt,” and therefore she did not fit the definition of a consumer according to Section 1692a(3). The court cited case law to support arguments both supporting and opposing PMAB’s position on this count, ultimately supporting PMAB’s position that “[n]on-consumers lack standing to bring suit against a debt collector under [Section] 1692c(c).” The case was remanded to jury trial to determine two questions with regard to the remaining charges: “Did the Defendant violate the FDCPA? If so, was[PMAB’s] violation(s) of the FDCPA [on these counts] the result of a good faith error?”

PMAB Calling You?

Federal laws protect you. The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) regulates the behavior of collection agencies by prohibiting actions such as the use of abusive or threatening language; harassment; or the use of false or misleading information to collect a debt. 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 PMAB 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.

  • Gwen E

    PMAB is sending me notices for a debt. that is being handled directly with Atrium Health Care, Access one. I pay a established amount, each month, to pay this bill in full. This is the second time that PMAB is involved in a case that was due to no fault of my own, yet they sent the debt. to the credit bureau anyway. Can this be handled immediately so that my credit will not be negatively impacted again.

  • Norris A

    PMAB is reporting the credit agency’s that I owe over $3300.00 to Gulf Breeze Hospital from 3/18. I have United Healthcare insurance and would have covered all charges. The first time I was aware I owed something was 11/18. I went to the hospitals billing department and they discovered they had forgot to bill the insurance company. They admitted all information was correct and did not know what fell through the cracks! They said they would send claim to the insurance company to see if it would be paid. She said they have a 30 day window to submit claim. The hospital contacted PMAB to have they cancel collections. PMAB has refused to cancel complaint and clear all my credit reports.
