Default Hospitals and blood tests

If you go to the hospital for something non drug related and they take blood will they see that there's thc in it? and are there consequences or is it doctor/patient confidentiallity?

I remember hearing/reading that drugs will only be tested for on a regular blood draw if requested by a social worker or judge.
If I'm remembering correctly. You'll more than likely be fine.

Not unless they are looking for it.

I've had like 3 blood tests since I've been 16, and they've never tested me for drugs (and I was using them, so I'd assume I would've found out if they had).

No. They're only concerned w/ certain ion/chem levels - not what drug metabolites are floating around. That's just extra shit to test for.

They aren't allowed to secretly test for drugs, and besides, it would be extra work for them anyways.

What they said.

More work, more money, plus they respect your privacy.

I ended up in the hospital on several drugs once, which they knew about, and nothing happened to me. Other than raping your wallet (if you don't have insurance), hospitals are your friends.

It's not like they're in cahoots with the local authorities or anything.
