Appeal from a judgment of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County (Anna Culley, J.), entered September 18, 2006. The judgment, entered pursuant to an order granting plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, awarded plaintiff the sum of $3,398.23.

PRESENT: PESCE, P.J., WESTON PATTERSON and GOLIA, JJ.
In this action by a medical provider to recover the sum of $2,114, plus interest and costs, for services rendered, plaintiff moved for summary judgment. In opposition to plaintiff's prima facie showing, defendant failed to substantiate her sole defense to the action, that a third-party insurer was obligated on the debt. She produced no proof of coverage and made no attempt to implead either of the insurers who, apparently, had denied that any insurance policy was in effect when the treatment was rendered ( see 21 Carmody-Wait 2d § 123:63, at 77). Accordingly, plaintiff's motion for summary judgment was properly granted and the judgment entered pursuant thereto is affirmed.
Pesce, P.J., Weston Patterson and Golia, JJ., concur.
