Setting up child's Immunization Record

ava_garde06

Hi All,

My 4 year old son will be arriving here on June-2016. He has complete vaccines from Pinas and is recorded in his baby book. Is that enough evidence so I can register him in centrelink/medicare?

Do I need to ask an actual official doctor's letter from his pedia in Pinas? Or do I need to find a GP here in Au that will translate those records for him so it will be officially in his Medicare records?

Thanks!

i read somewhere that what they did is ask their Pedia for a certification of all the immunisation.. ito rin plan ko gawin... 🙂

@ava_garde06 baby book lang ang dinala ko, nandun naman kase nila nilagay yung sticker ng vaccines na binigay nila plus may summary ang likod ng baby book na ginamit ni pedia. Yun din ang kinuha lang ng GP, ung summary ng vaccines na may signature ng pedia. So yes, kelangan mo ng GP kase sila lang ang pwedeng magbigay ng history ng vaccines ng anak mo 🙂

@muffles127 paano kapag kulang pa ng vaccine si 3 yr-old daughter ko? kelangan ba complete na sya ng vaccine bago maregister sa Medicare?

muffles127

@joseph85 mareregister mo siya kahit di complete ang vaccine niya. Yung mga kulang niya dito nalang siya bibigyan ng GP.

@muffles127 are the vaccines free?

@joseph85 yung nasa national immunisation program lang yung covered ng medicare so yun yung mga normal vaccines hep b, mmrv, etc. so kung meron ka ipapavaccine sa kanya halimbawa hep a, babayaran mo yun kase di covered ang hep a vaccine unless andun ka sa exception nila na high risk and di ko na maremember kung ano nasa exception 🙂

Maraming salamat @muffles127 🙂
