With a personal injury claim, can a hospital receive monies from my settlement even if the hospital visit was unrelated my accident?

Typically, a medical provider should only be entitled to payment from a settlement for treatment RELATED to that accident.  However, keep in mind that regardless of whether the bill is related or not, if you got the treatment, you are responsible for the bill!
