How can I get a medical bill resolved from a collection agency?

the frog asked:


I have been on time with every payment for a year and a half now. The law office “Collector ” refuses to except my offer of 50 cents on the dollar as a quick resolution to the balance. I am trying to obtain a pre-approval for a morgage loan and they won’t even supply me a payment history with proof of my honorable and on time payments. I need to fix this quick; what should I do? Please HELP! I’ve already knocked off $1,400 of the balance which was originally some $2,700.
