More details to this question:
I was stuck at work by a syringe. The first emergency room didn't have what was needed to treat me, they just let me go without signing anything. They told me i wouldn't be charged. Now i'm getting bills and they claim i signed forms. I know i did not. I specifically asked them if they needed my signature and they said no.

You will need to dispute this with them in writing and set out the specifics. Otherwise, not sure what would be needed to treat you for being stuck with a syringe that ANY ER wouldnot have the ability to treat and presumably with you working in a medical environment that your employer did nothave treatment supplies on the jobsite. I suspect there is more to this story than presented but you will need to address this in detail with the hospital at issue. Otherwise, you may have to hirea lawye at some expense to intervene and go from there.
