Does an unpaid medical bill look bad on your credit report Since it was an emergency?
Yes ... the credit bureau only "sees" unpaid debt ... it does not determine who is owed or how the unpaid debt was incurred. You should be writing to the credit bureau's and explain the situation - they may drop the reported unpaid bill, but will not forgive the debt still owed ... that still needs to be paid back to the medical institution as soon as possible, as they are a business and rely upon money (income) to pay their bills and staff.
Can a 400 bill that is unpaid affect your credit report even if you make payment arrangements with the debt collector?

Should you pay off your 3 year old phone bill that shows up on your credit report from the credit bureau?
Absoutely! Any unpaid bill on your credit report will lower your credit rating, and can result in financial institutions refusing you loans, as well as credit card companies not approving you for any credit cards you may apply for. It will also result in your interest rate being raised on any you may already have. And there are some companies that, when you apply for a job with them, will not hire you if you have a poor credit rating. And, last but not least, it's the right thing to do.
