Americans "go to the hospital" whereas Brits "go to hospital".


Again it depends on if you're visiting someone or going for an operation etc. I would use either of the above.

I'd go to hospital to have my appendix removed, but I would go to the hospital to visit my friend.

Edit: Just re-read your post and think thats probably what you just said
