What NOT to Say If You Answer 877-521-6773
Anything you say to Medical Bureau can be used to collect. Protect yourself — avoid these common mistakes on the call.
Don't admit the debt is yours
When 877-521-6773 calls, saying "yes, that's mine" or apologizing can be treated as acknowledging the debt — which may reset the statute of limitations. Neither confirm nor deny until you've seen written validation from Medical Bureau.
Don't agree to a payment on the spot
A single payment to Medical Bureau — even a small "good-faith" one — can restart the clock on an old debt and make it collectable again. Never authorize a payment over a call from 877-521-6773.
Don't give bank or card details
Do not read out your bank account, debit, or credit card number to anyone calling from 877-521-6773. Any legitimate Medical Bureau resolution can be handled in writing after validation.
Don't confirm personal information
Avoid confirming your SSN, date of birth, employer, or address to the 877-521-6773 caller. If it truly is your Medical Bureau account, they should already have what they need and must prove it.
What To Do If 877-521-6773 Keeps Calling
Here are concrete next steps for this specific Medical Bureau line. Work through them in order — each one strengthens your position before you ever discuss the debt.
- 1

- 2
Do not return the call to 877-521-6773 until you have the account details in writing — a call-back can be treated as engagement.

Your Rights When Medical Bureau Calls From 877-521-6773
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) give you real leverage. Here is the debt-validation playbook we use at Crowned Credit.
1. Demand Debt Validation (FDCPA §809)
Within 30 days of first contact, send Medical Bureau a written debt-validation letter. They must prove the debt is yours, the amount is right, and they have the legal authority to collect — or stop collecting.
2. Dispute With the Bureaus (FCRA §611)
If Medical Bureau reported a tradeline, dispute it with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. They have 30 days to investigate; unverifiable items must be corrected or deleted.
3. Log the Calls
Write down every call from 877-521-6773: date, time, and what was said. Repeated calls, calls at odd hours, or threats can be FDCPA violations — and leverage for you.
4. Send a Cease-and-Desist
You can demand in writing that Medical Bureau stop calling you entirely. The calls must stop, even though they may still report or pursue other legal steps.
5. Check the Statute of Limitations
Every state limits how long a collector can sue on a debt. If the debt is time-barred, Medical Bureau generally cannot win a lawsuit — and a payment could dangerously restart that clock.
6. Know the Anti-Harassment Rules
The FDCPA bars Medical Bureau from calling before 8am or after 9pm, threatening you, or lying about the debt. Each violation may entitle you to statutory damages.

That said, scammers do "spoof" the caller ID of well-known collectors like Medical Bureau, so the number showing on your screen is not proof of anything.

Why is Medical Bureau calling me about medical/healthcare debt?
A call from 877-521-6773 usually means an original medical/healthcare debt went unpaid and was placed with Medical Bureau, which dials this line to collect on the original creditor's behalf. The account may have aged or changed hands more than once, so demand the full paper trail before you accept the balance as accurate.
Can I stop Medical Bureau from calling 877-521-6773?
