    They will try to collect it. They still have to treat you, no matter if you give it or not.

      Hospitals are only required to give you life saving medical attention, nothing more, which I already referenced twice. And your not simply allowed to go “thanks for putting my arm back on, bye!” If you refuse to tell the hospital who you are after the fact they can and will call the police since your attempting fraud (refusing to pay), if you provide a false ID (name and address etc) then whoever is handling the billing will call the police for fraud
