If you pay a bill “under protest”, does this allow for future legal action against the payee?

Coralee H asked:

A medical firm failed to provide necessary patient care in a hospital. One of their physicians was to provide physical therapy, and after asking me 3 times how I was doing, he never followed up. I told him I had not received any therapy. I asked the nurses about physical therapy, and they told me each time that there were “no written orders”. I was released anyway, and wheeled out to my car. I stool up to get in and collapsed. My legs were jelly. I was confined to my room for ten days, and feel that my muscles were atrophied, and after two months, I still have problems with strength and other complications from heavy steroids given to me IV st the hospital.
