Hi guys! I read na only if you intend to work as (or study to be) a doctor, dentist, nurse or paramedic you will need to do hepatitis B and C test. I'm planning to study as a Caregiver, kelangan ko din ba magpa hepa B and C test?

I am not aware of Hep C test but Hep B vaccination is required for students and health practitioners intending to study and/or work in Australia.

@don222 san stage ka ng application mo? May ITA ka na ba? For lodging ka na or medical? Pag meron na, mag generate ka ng HaP ID para meron kang emedical form, jan nakasaad anung tests ang gagawin mo. Pero for general use, xray, urine analysis, HIV at physical examination lang ginagawa.

don222 · August 2019

@lecia thanks for the response. hindi pa ako nagaapply, I'm just reading thru and researching the process of the application.

lecia · August 2019

@don222 you’re welcome. Maganda nga po magbasa basa then compile ng mga docs before applying. You’re on the right track!

Guys san mas ok pa medical? Sa St Lukes ba or Nationwide? How much sa St Lukes? Nakita ko sa Nationwide P7,050 yung for temporary visa nila.. 489 pala ako

becca91 · August 2019

Hi guys, share ko lang yung experience ko sa St Lukes BGC today.. everything was going well until pinatawag na ako ng doctor for physical exam. The doctor noticed my scars on my left arm, tanong nya agad, “Bakit ka naglaslas?”. Nagulat ako sa tanong, kasi hindi naman yun laslas, i got it from an accident in highschool. I was trying to explain pero she cut me off, she just told me “Sige, okay na, pwede ka na lumabas.” Actually una palang ang sungit na nya talaga.. Blank faced sya the whole time, then tanong - sagot lang kami. So lumabas na ako, then the nurse called me for my final evaluation, sabi nya yung slash marks report daw eh isusubmit nila sa embassy then yung embassy na daw magdedecide if they will require additional psychiatric exam for me.

I tried to explain na i got it from an accident and i wasn’t suicidal pero ang embassy na raw magdedecide doon. Nakakainis lang na hindi man ako pinagexplain ng doctor and hindi ko rin alam ano nilagay nya sa report.

Anyone had the same case? Medyo nakaka worry tuloy.

Let’s pray for a good outcome! Hindi masaya sa trabaho nya yung doctor.. May sinulat ba sya sa form mo or na tick nun ni ask ka nya about laslas thing na gawa gawa lang nya?

becca91 · August 2019

@lecia may sinulat sya sis pero hindi ko na nabasa.. hay. Sana nga good outcome padin.

@becca91 if its nothing, don't fuss about it. Maybe stress lang si doc. I am not sure what's the practice in Philippines if you can raise complaint for making incorrect assessment, diagnosis/findings sa hospital or doctor. Kasi from where im from,
Befor, pede mag report. (ofw most of my professional career)

don222 · September 2019

Ano po Medical exam ang ginagawa kung mag aapply ka ng student visa for Aged care or cargiver?

yapjaman · September 2019

Hi @don222, in the e-medical referral letter (that you need to bring with you to the panel clinic) there are questions that you need to answer to the best of your knowledge. This includes any history regarding hepatitis B or C, and if the answer is yes, Hepatitis B and C test will then be required in your medical exam.

Hi.. Does anyone know kung ilang days after masubmit ng clinic ang results sa embassy? Sa Nationwide Cebu po ako ng pamedical.

lecia · September 2019

@xirki101 2-5 days.. minsang agad agad submit naman nila as long as cleared ka. Check nyo po sa immi account nyo, yung health dec ay “submitted ang status”..

xirki101 · September 2019

I see.. Agent kasi nglodge ng visa ko, i don't have access to my immi account.

Hi! Tanong ko lang po kung kasama nyo mag-migrante un family member na may history ng cancer? Salamat.

lecia · September 2019

@KMJLD_Au family members as your wife and dependent children po? Meron ka ✅ doon sa medical forms na fill up nyo pag meron na ITA. Yan lang po ang pwdeng kasama sa pag migrate, pero pag parents, in laws, siblings, non migrating po yan dapat.

ce_01 · September 2019

@KMJLD_Au di po mother ko po ang may cancer. By the time nagpamedical ako wala na sya. Pero di na ko tinanong nung medical.

16th.milkshake · September 2019

Hi guys, need advice po. My partner is currently applying for temporary visa. He has already lodged his application. Due to him having hepa B before, NHS makati required him to take a blood test, and he tested positive for hepa B antigens.

They asked him to get a clearance from his doctor. The doctor asked him to get an ultrasound, viral count, and antibody count. Upon getting the results, tumaas na ulit ang viral count nya. He hasn’t shown the results to his doctor yet but for sure he would need to take his medication again.

Ngayon, should we forward this assessment to NHS agad? Would they fail him right away? Or would they understand that he only has to take another round of medication tapos ok na uli sya?

Salamat po sa makakapagbigay advice and share ng experience

fufudoods · September 2019

Hi tanong ko lang kung may naka-experience ba sa inyo ng further medical information na feedback from immigration after ng medical exam. yung parents ko nagpa-medical, ang mama ko is 68yrs old na and my papa is 73yrs old, si papa ang hiningan ng further info, so kelangan niya bumalik ulit sa clinic na pinag-exam nya. share naman kayo kung anong nangyari.

ccvsq · September 2019

Hello po. Not sure po if natanong na before, pero ask ko lang po if big issue po ba sa approval ng visa pag high blood? I'm 30 years old pa lang ang medyo mataas na BP ko. I'm curious if mataas ang chance na madeny ako dahil dito? Thanks po sa inyo.

lecia · September 2019

@ccvsq hindi po!! Pero make sure mo naman pag malapit na medical mo, be healthy I mean gawin mo lahat ng ways para bumaba BP mo, eat healthy, exercise and a healthy lifestyle. Self help lang katapat nyan. Of course sa dami ng pinagdaanan sa visa processing, make sure mo na sa medical ehh pasado ka na.. Minsan ksi pag nagccheck ang doctor ng BP, pag mataas they will let you rest and repeat ulit, pag mataas ulit, baka pabalikin ka the next day kasi ipapagpahinga mo yan. Pag next day na mataas pa din, they will ask for a lab test to make sure oks ang blood chemistry mo, for further examination baka magrequest pa ng kung anu ano, baka may underlying diseases/illness na nagcacause ng high BP,. diko na alam yun.. til lab tests lang alam ko kasi kami gumagawa nyan.

Saan stage ka na ng application?

aixirtap · September 2019

Hi po good day. Tanong ko lang po how can I book an appointment for medical here in AU? nasa sydney po ako. I am applying for tss visa. Sept 26 last year po yung last medical ko. Bali po di na po yun tatanggapin nang immi kasi nka sulat doon with in the last 12 months. di ko pa po na lodge yung tss ko kasi ngayon ko lang nakuha nbi ko. ayun di na umabot yung medical ko. I tried to apply for a new hap id po. i got the referral. i followed po the steps in booking an appointment. sa Bupa site po yung select date nila for appointment sa parramatta and sydney branch lahat po no available slots until sa 2020. Sino po dito sa inyo may alam kung paano ako makaka kuha nang slot or appointment? can i apply in person po ba? or does it have to be online?
I called BUPA po sabi nila wla daw talagang slots kasi full po daw ngayun. Mag abang lang daw ako kung may mag cacancel kasi may slots daw na aappear doon sa dates nila pag may nag cancel.

any advice po paano gawin yung medical?
thank you po sa sasagot

Hello Kabayan! Magbakasakali lang ako baka meron kami kaparehas na scenario dito. Last Oct 17, 2018 nakapag medical kami for TSS Visa 482 and valid for PR application narin na valid for 1 year. Then na invite kami to apply for Visa 190 at nag lodged na last Oct 10, 2019. Tanong ko lang kung magiging Valid pa ba ang medical namin for the last 12 months or kailangan ulit namin mag book ng panibagong health exam? Salamat

marav0318 · October 2019

Hi po. I'm a newbee here. Ask ko lang. I'm an IT professional and plan to apply for AU PR. sa IT field po ba kelangan ang Hepa B screening?
Meron na po ba dito na grant na IT pero may Hepa B?
Gusto ko po sana malaman before kami magapply kasi sayang naman ang effort, time and money if strict si AU s ganitong case.

Salamat po s sasagot

kriscandy · November 2019

Hi @marav0318, you can read from this thread as I have found it useful and have given my input there as well. Good luck to you and God bless!

I suppose yes. Basta within 1year yung medical.

A_GA2AU · November 2019

Hi everyone., nag medical kasi kami for 489 last September. But then naglodge ulit kami ng cisa for 190. Sa 489 ko nalaman na i need treatment for tb, kaya yung sputum ko aa dec pa lalabas. Kaya lang nag email sakin bupa ngaun. With new hap id. Then deferred yung health ko. Should i still use the 489 medical hap id or ung bagong hap id na gagamitin ko???
