This is a question for Pennsylvania methadone clinics. If a drug user, such as a heroine addict checks in to a methadone clinic. Do they test you for hepatitis a, b, and c. Also, do they test you for hiv? How many times do they do this ? Thank you

I can't say for sure but I would imagine that they do some kind of screening . Now the type of screening would be what is allowed under the Laws of Pennsylvania . But to be really sure you may to contact the Pennsylvania health department or the clinics themselves . Good luck.
