this has been going on for a long time in most hospitals in the country, they all know who the drug seekers are and have do not give any narco’s to these people lists. saw this in the 70’s in san diego.
I still think this should be a decision made by medical directors at the hospital, not an autocratic decision.
A trend is building in this country that is alarming. The mentality for stopping the illegal use of legal products by restricting legal use for all is alarming. Drug seekers abuse prescription narcotics, restrict the access to truly sick patients. People shoot up schools, restrict access for law abiding citizens to guns. Over eaters get fat drinking soda, outlaw the sale of large bottles of soda.
