I'm curious to know whether the government was required to be carried out tests is that the discrimination against low-income families and women?

I do a research on the welfare of Texas laws, regulations and guidelines. If the answer is, if the facts are known to be a delivery room RN, LVN, gynecology / obstetrics, or a lawyer ...

I would be the hospital. I know that is being tested in New York with Medicaid 3 times in my obstetrics and gynecology drugs during pregnancy. They do not go to trial until after he left, because the urine, which are regularly tested for protein and sugar. I know that is in New York for a newborn child tested if you suspect your child with Drawls. Thus it may be the same in Texas, nurses and doctors can be established, if they suspect that, as when a child comes into the ER with an injury to the child abuse, suspected of not making a claim under suspicion.

Once you know, it would be difficult to prove discrimination because they are on behalf of children as a priority. I know I am a middle class, and Medicaid, but was informed in advance of the various procedures that have begun to be used, such as 3 tests avoid random drug testing in my area in order to have, say, abuse of system administration.

I would also ask Medicaid in your area and ask them, I'm sure you could get a great quote from a social worker,just tell them you want some information for research and to inquire about their policies, and if they drug test, why not?
