Emergency Department opt-out HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C testing
Everyone aged 18 and older who has their blood tested in a London emergency department now has it tested for HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. It’s important to get diagnosed early, as treatment is life-saving and free from the NHS. Your results are confidential. If you do not wish to be tested, please let a member of staff know. If your test comes back positive, we will contact you and explain what happens next.
