Ava, you won't be able to remove paid medical bill from your credit report. Negative items stay on your credit report for 7 years. You could have requested the collection agency to agree to a "Pay for delete" (PFD) agreement. With PFD agreement all the negatives from your account gets deleted.
However, you can try sending a goodwill letter to the collection agency. You can use the sample Goodwill letter from http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/letters/goodwill-removelisting.html . Send the letter through certified mail, requesting a return receipt.
