Legal Question in Family Law in Oregon

Sued for ex-wife's medical bills!!

My wife and I had our divorce finalized in Jan of 2009. Prior to this she incurred some medical expenses of which there is a remaining $4000 after insurance paid their share. I never signed anything with the hospital or physician's office stating I would be responsible for these bills. In our divorce agreement we stated that we each would be solely responsible for any bills or debt we incurred individually during the marriage. I recently received a lawsuit from a collection agency attempting to recover this money. In light of our divorce agreement, am I responsible for these bills? Thanks!
