There is not enough information here to answer your question. Baker Acted is for the protection of the individual who may cause harm to themselves or others.

Have you been billed for these services? How did you get to be at the hospital in the first place? Why were they taking your blood? There seems to be much more to this story. Medical malpractice cases have many, many facets to them. If there was a cause to be concerned that you may hurt yourself or others, then it was a proper baker act. It would be difficult to prove that it was improper at the time you were baker acted without substantial evidence to the contrary. I am assuming that the evidence would be contradictory at best. If this is not the case, I would be interested in understanding what happened.
