Problem solved. Maybe I was lucky. I later received a humungous bill for the two hours I was there, which I did not pay. They probably were charging me for a whole days stay in that psych ward. Please note that In Michigan, a hospital cannot sue for unpaid bills. But this was twenty years ago.

Thanks, Tucson. Outrageous, that you were charged like that. No, a hospital cannot sue for unpaid bills here, either and they can't go on a person's credit record.
