Not in the US, but a friend of my sister was bitten by a fox while she was abroad in Mexico, it didn't look like anything bad, but her friend convinced her to go to the ER to get it checked, the wait there was long and she ended up leaving after 3 hours of waiting. She developed rabies and was repatriated to France where she died a few weeks later. Nothing could be done because the incubation period had already passed. Please have insurance, and don't give up getting checked because it doesn't look serious or you don't have insurance, and always schedule a follow up with you GP as the ER only address urgent things for until you follow up.
