Deferred Medical

odwight · October 2019

@corrappyka_CE sir pwede po kaya yun hindi na ipaulit ang medical ng main applicant if expired na? Since nalodge naman na..

Just wait for the Officer, sasabihin naman nila kung kailangan pa ulit yung medical kasi expired na.

For my case, we lodge last March 2019 and got CO asking to do exam ulit kasi nga ay case ako ng TB infection because of my housemate. Seems its only valid for 6 months if you have history of TB. Submitted my new medical last Oct 8 and got the grant after 2 weeks.

joice · November 2019

@corrappyka_CE @Peregrine same cases tayo. Naglodge kami Oct 2018, pero may scar nakita sa xray so nagsputum (3months) and repeat xray kaso maysakit yung asawa ko that time so result nagprogress daw, natapos treatment ng Aug2019, uploaded sputum and culture ng Oct 29 2019. Yun din expiration ng medical ko (main applicant). Please update pag nagrant na yung visa niyo. Sana magrant na visa natin. 189 pala yung inapplyan namin.

corrappyka_CE · November 2019

nope, sa awa ng Diyos wala naman akong ganyan.
Ang alam ko, sabi ng Doc dati pag may side effect sabihin lang daw sa kanya.
Baka bawasan yung dosage of palitan yung gamot.

Just try asking your Doc na nag pe-persist pa din yung itchiness.

I'm still here in SG, planning to do BM next year.
Ipon muna para sa baon.

So far wala naman akong nabalitaan na narereject dahil sa TB case.
As long as you can provide the na clear kana and na complete mo yung medication, I think all should be ok.

Just pray hard, darating din yan.

corrappyka_CE · December 2019

@joice @Peregrine kamusta mga batchmates? Any updates about your applIcation? Nakalampas na kme sa 12months ng application and still waiting pa din.

May question lang ako, ung medical ni misis was done last november 2018 pero ung treatment nya natapos ng september 2019. Anong validity ng medical exam nya? Will the september 2019 supersede ung nov 2018 medical? Or ung exams taken lng nov 2018 ang ireretake? Do you have any ideas on this?

A_GA2AU · December 2019

Hi guys, is there instance na negative smear pero positive sputum?

A_GA2AU · December 2019

Yung lab test ba ditetso sa immigration ung results.?

engineer20 · December 2019

@A_GA2AU ay @odwight ask ko lang sana kung PR ba kayo or pass holder sa SG. kung pass holder nireport ba ng clinic na positive kayo sa TB s MOM? Ano naging action ng MOM? Thanks.

Work Pass lang. Pag lumabas yung sputum at naging positive dun pakang ifoforward case ko sa MOH. Kasi papadalhan lahat ng mga close contact ko ng letter na mag screen din sila. May TB ako and naggagamot na. Pero pag active yung TB ko yun ung kinakatakutan ko.

Bibigyan ka ng letter na hindi ka pwedeng tanggalin kasi naggagamot kana. Pero kung nalaman nila na may TB ka sa pass renewal, yan ata yung nawawalan ng pass.

Pwede po mag ask if kakatapos lang treatment mabibigyan ka po kaya ng health clearance ng st. Lukes? Thanks po

corrappyka_CE · January 2020

@kassiamm Actually hindi po si St. Lukes ang magcclear ng medical exam po, kundi si BUPA. The panel physician will only perform the necessary tests required and will submit their recommendation to BUPA who in turn will provide the clearance.

In our case po kasi, after my wife's treatment and upon submission of treatment certification ni Panel Physician, hindi pa po siya naclear agad. PinagSputum and Culture po ulet siya upon the advise of BUPA kaya it took us additional 3 months pa before we received her medical clearance.

Thank you po sa reply, ask ko din po sana kung sa St. Lukes po nag treatment yung wife niyo or with private doctor po?

corrappyka_CE · January 2020

@kassiamm Sa SG po nagpamedical si misis, while she was given the option where she would like to have the treatment for her convenience. Pero ung treatment lang naman po yun. Dun lang po siya nagtake ng medicines. Upon completion po ng medication, she reported back to the panel physician who ran the remaining test (Chest X-ray) before submitting to BUPA. Afterwards, nirequire ni BUPA na magconduct ng Sputum and Culture po ulet as I've said earlier.

kassiamm · January 2020

Hello to all, ask ko lang po if sino po naka experience mag TB treatment for 6months pero hindi po sa SLEC(St. Lukes Extension Clinic) nag trratment? Thank you po!

Hi @corrappyka_CE sabi ng doctor ko na nagclear sa sputum ko na ako daw ang magsesend ng results ng sputum sa BUPa. Confused ako kasi ang alam ko sila magsesend nun hindi ako. Panu kaya yun?

corrappyka_CE · January 2020

@A_GA2AU Yung doctor po ba na nagclear sa inyo ung panel physician? If not, you need to get the results and submit it to the original panel physician. Sa case kc namin, ung panel physician is Quest Laboratories SG, then tinuro kame sa Tan Tock Seng Hospital to perform the sputum smear and culture, then si Tan Tock Seng Hospital na ang nagsubmit back kay Quest Laboratories nung result. Si QL na ang actual nagsend ng results kay BUPA.

A_GA2AU · January 2020

Ang clinic po namin ay yung Paragon. Tapos sinend kami sa Tan tock seng for sputum and smear. So pag binigay sakin yung results. Ibibigay ko ba ulit sa Paragon?
