@travellergirl hello, ang pagkakaintindi ko sa process nila ay SLEC lang ang taga submit ng results, they may give you initial feedback like clear or may nakita verbally, but ultimately the assessment that matters will come from BUPA (and they will be sure to tell you this "depende sa embassy" quote). Walang bearing halos kung nag pa consult ka sa iba, med cert etc. (heck I even did a CT). Your dad may not have active TB, but the embassy/bupa also checks for inactive TB, kahit tiny scar lang yan from some 10 years ago, may chance na ipag-sputum pa din, then x-ray after 3 months to compare na walang growth from the initial x-ray you did with them. I know nakaka-stress sobra, pero mahigpit talaga sila sa TB, digital ung x-ray nila so na zuzoom-zoom pa nila ito gang makita na kaluluwa mo. Verbally lang sinabi nung una ng SLEC na clear? Meron silang mga 2 to 3 doctors na required magcheck, and pinabalik kayo for a repeat, my guess is sa first xray may nakita, kaya pinabalik for the 2nd one, then baka one of the doctors said clear, pero the 2nd or 3rd doctor didn't. But again, ultimately, si bupa ang susundin.
