Answers:
You can go to a hospital and demand anything you want to demand!. You won't get it, though!.

Going to a hospital and asking to be euthanized will get you a psychiatric evaluation and possibly a 36-hour psychiatric admission, as it can be considered a suicide attempt!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No - although in Oregon it is legal to have physician assisted suicide!.

The only four places that today openly and legally, authorize active assistance in dying of patients, are:

Oregon (since l997, physician-assisted suicide only);
Switzerland (1941, physician and non-physician assisted suicide only);
Belgium (2002, permits 'euthanasia' but does not define the method;
Netherlands (voluntary euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide lawful since April 2002 but permitted by the courts since l984)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
