No Insurance..I need relief of toothache such as root canal.Im going to the hospital, can they not admit me?

I went once before to the dental clinic in the hospital, they took me in. I havent paid the hospital bill. I am in alot of pain and would like something to be done whether its an extraction or root canal..Can they say no and leave me in pain because I have no insurance or because i havent paid? I live in the state of New York. Thanks!

In New York, emergency care is required to be provided regardless of your economic status. A toothache may or may not qualify under that statute. However, it has been my experience that they will treat you.
