The answer depends to an extent on whether the hospital bill was part of a hospital lien or a subrogation lien from your health provider and how the liens were presented to the other side. "What you can do", depends on that information as well as how large the hospital bill was and the amount of the settlement, as well as whether settlement detail was provided to you before the payment and you did not notice it or whether it was not presented to you beforehand.
