It's well established that if an emergency professional, such as an MD shows up at a scene and renders unsolicited medical services, he can seek compensation.
But when no services are rendered, I don't see how they can force payment.
Actually I did send them a nice letter complimenting their service to the community and explaining how, since I didn't call them, and I had refused any treatment, that I thought their bill was unwarranted. A few months later they re-sent the bill to me noting that interest charges will be incurred if I don't pay right away; and they will contact a collection agency.
If your insurance company denied the bill, they may be able to advise you about whether you have any obligation to pay it. It's likely that the REASON they denied it is because you have no obligation to pay it, but you'd want to confirm that with them.
