Ugh. That's about all I can say on that.

On the drug screen. I just went through that when I started PM. The contract is pretty standard. I balked at paying for a UDS since I was very specific about not wanting opiates. The nurse told me it was so they could have a baseline and as long as they weren't prescribing pain meds for me they wouldn't need to do one again. This one statement, having a baseline, made sense to me as far as documentation and I suppose so they know if someone is using illegal drugs. It does feel invasive but if they prescribed narcotics to someone also using other drugs there could really be a dangerous outcome.
