Medical Bill and what happens if I don't pay
So my situation may be a little different to others so I shall just briefly explain. So I am in Los Angeles. I received a medical bill ($6900), went on a payment plan and paid $2500 over 2 months whilst waiting for the itemized bill. When I received it, I wanted to dispute the remainder of the bill and requested my payment plan to be paused whilst a decision was being made. This request was approved. I received the decision a few weeks later (dispute denied) and I haven't been contacted at all regarding re-starting my payment plan. I believe the billing to be a completely unfair amount and I really don't want to pay the remainder (I literally don't have the funds anyway). My questions:
1. How likely is it that they won't contact me and just send it through to collections? How soon after not paying does a bill go to collections?
2. Would they try and sue me for $4400?
3. If I move to a different country, how likely is it that they will pursue?
Thank you in advance!
