Drug screening is performed on some patients, who are prescribed certain types of medication. Patients who receive such medicine are notified that drug screening will occur and agree to the screening in writing. The results are determined by an outside laboratory. Lab reports are discussed with patients when received. Results from the outside lab are listed as “positive” or “negative” along with the amount of substance found in one’s system if applicable. Unless receiving a specific medication, drug screening is not routinely done.
No. He has not ordered any blood work nor done any other type of blood test. My primary care physician does that. If you know what laboratory processed your test, I believe you can ask the lab to let you view your lab report. HIPAA rules apply. I hope that if you have a problem you can straighten it out. I can't give medical or legal advice. Talk to the doctor about it.
