You can go to an ER regardless. If it's an emergency, they will see her. But yes she needs that info for billing or it will cause major issues later for her.

Legally the ER cannot turn away anyone and have to accept you even if you cannot pay.

I would assume you need a social security number  to qualify for any government assistance
