    If you have medical records, do they keep a DNA record of you?

    If you don’t keep a record of yourself and don’t have any ID on yourself when you call, if you don’t give a name can they match your DNA or something?

      Theoretically this is possible to do if you’ve avoided any documentation your entire life, or more likely, the hospital staff just dont care enough and forget to find out who you really are before letting you leave.

      But realistically the hospital is going to have the cops come in and do a background check on you before even letting you get further care after lifesaving measures. And if you dont give up your information then your most likely getting ICE called on your ass…
