If you are talking about submitting a claim to your insurance carrier I believe that there is. I am not sure what it is but most insurers will not pay claims once they are so old. I had this trouble in the past with a medical bill. The doctors office did not submit the claim "in a timely manner" and I ended up being billed by the doctor. I argued with the office and they had said I would not be responsible since it was their error but it showed up on my credit report and I ended up paying it anyway so it would not have a really bad effect on my good credit score.

Hello JPM, Well, a bit more about the issue would have been great for the members to understand your actual position. Have you experienced any issue regarding time limit of filing a claim with health insurer?

Yes more information would be better I just thought I would see if this was the issue. Sometimes without all the information all ytou can do is guess.
