help😩 medical debt
im 19 years old and pregnant. i found out i was pregnant in january and went to the doctor. i saw my doctor 3 times before they informed me that my insurance at the time had no maternity coverage.. i got new insurance and medicaid now. but i just got a bill from a collections agency today for almost $2,000. my medicaid should cover it because it was from when i was technically uninsured. my question is, do i call the collections agency to give them my medicaid information or do i call my welfare office? i never got any bills prior to this (not sure if my mom never gave them to me/threw them away or what) but now that its in collections im really scared and dont know what to do. someone please help. there is no way i can pay this, even on a monthly payment schedule as i have no income at all and we literally use all of my boyfriends money for bills/rent/baby items and barely get by.
