No such lien may be effective, however, unless a written notice containing the name and address of the injured party, the date of occurrence of the injury, the name and location of the hospital, and the name of the person, firm, limited liability company, or corporation alleged to be liable to the injured party for the injuries received, is filed in the office of the register of deeds of the county in which the hospital is located, before the payment of any moneys to the injured party, the injured party's attorneys or legal representative, as compensation for the injury.
