Can a debt collector take my car with a lien on it over unpaid medical bills?

Long story short I had breast tumors removed and with that about $1500-$2000 in medical debt. Can't afford to pay it right now but got sent a debt collector letter. Preschool classroom aide.

No, call the hospital or clinic and work out a payment plan. As long as you are communicating in good faith to work out a plan with the provider, the agency can’t do anything.

The hospital would rather have regular payments than the payment less the collections fee.
