You seem to not know how debt collection works, and how to deal with a debt collector. First, they were required to do this:
It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and that they have the legal right to collect it. You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid.
Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes. The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.
Based on the other reports here it sounds like someone is pretending to be a "state" debt collector. The state does not collect debt for hospitals or any private party. I would suggest that you take the time to read and learn at the following agencies and to also report these crooks.
Read up on your rights here and also make a complaint at this government site: http://www.consumerfinance.gov/
Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

This is a state collection agency for Delnor. Trying to collect $25.00 from a bill for 2012! Really??? This charge has never shown up on my husbands bill - I paid $5,000.00 to Delnor in 2012, 2013, 2014 and about $1300.00 in 2015, and this $25.00 charge just showed up on my husbands bill in 2015!!! He passed away in April - REALLY DELNOR? Cadence? Northwest hospital!!! My insurance company can't go back to the EOB's in 2012 so I don't know if I owe it or not - I explained this to the collector and she said "really? it's only $25.00 is it really worth it to you to go to collections for $25.00?" I said...you've made 3 calls to me on this - is it worth the effort and time you're spending on it? I'll keep explaining it to them I guess until they've spent about $500.00 trying to collect $25.00. Ha Ha Ha!!!
Repeated calls on amounts I have no idea where they came from. REALLY?
I think they made the amount up and since it has already gone to collections delnor has written it off anyhow. They cant touch your credit report nor garnish wages so I say screw them!
Calls my house and cell up to 4 times a day, every single solitary day. Now it's just the principal of the matter. SO not answering, they can keep on calling & calling.
