A doctor can order any test he or she thinks appropriate. But you cannot be forced to take the test unless you are a child and your guardian or parent agrees, or you are an adult declared to be incompetent on medical matters and have a guardian assigned who agrees to the test.
You should always be aware of what tests are ordered and how they are likely to benefit you. Then you can decide whether or not to have them done.

And it's not that they're not telling you--you need to ask what the various test codes mean.
