I believe in Ohio a medical creditor can attempt to collect a bill for 7 years. However, they can hold onto the account as long as they decide.

What is the statute of limitations for medical bills in Ohio?" I had a $242 medical bill removed from my credit years ago with the explanation of benefits from the medical insurance. The debit is over 8 years old now and I am no longer with that medical insurance. They state they are not able to pull up the EOB now due to the age. I didn't save the one I had because it was removed from my credit. A new collection agency is now calling and trying to collect on the debit telling me they have 15 years to collect. I looked up Ohio statue of limitations, which are mostly 6 years but there is one section that says 15 years with a signed contract. Are medical bills considered a signed contract?
