Nung Apr12 ako nagpa medical sa St Lukes. Tho wala naman ako natanggap na text message from them na need ng further exams, sinabihan nila ako na may significant findings sila and bahala na daw ang Aus Immi ang cocontact sakin. Kayo po ba, minessage kagad kqyo ni St Lukes na need nyo ng another xray? Thanks po.

Hi everyone. Sa mga nagpamedical po sa St Luke's BGC, gano po katagal bago naupdate ung health assessment nio from "examination in progress" to completed? Thanks po sa mga sasagot.

One week nung unang medical ko. Then nung pina repeat xray ako, 2 days lang. From "in progress" to "ready for assessment". Tapos nung unang medical ko, from "ready for assessment" until cinontact ako ni BUPA na need ng further exam, mga 8working days.

Hi Marksolito, thanks sa reply. Say Tuesday nagpamedical, Tuesday din hopefully macocomplete? I wonder bat BUPA ang nagcontact sayo. Baka nirefer ka ng immi sa BUPA? Hope everything's sorted now for you.

Hi. Si BUPA yung medical officer ni Aus Immi. kumbaga sila may final approval ng medical mo. and since sinabihan na ko ni St Lukes na may significant findings sa xray ko, same day ng medical ko, ayun inexpect ko na na tatagal. haha. from my appointment date hanggang contactin ako ni BUPA, mga approx 3 weeks. pero if wala naman something sa medical ko kumbaga, in that 3 weeks, baka "health clearance provided - no action required" na yung status sa immi account ko. eto timeline ng medical ko:
April 12 - appointment (in progress ang status sa immi account ko)
April 19 - naging read for assessment yung status sa immi account ko
May 01 - nag email si BUPA na need ng another xray
May 02 - second appointment (naging "in progress" ulit status ko sa immi account)
May 04 - naging ready for assessment na ulit yung status sa immi account
til now waiting.

Medyo kabado din ako nung nagpamedical ako dahil nga sa history ko. Para sigurado, I submitted my all chest xrays (2 years prior medical) where findings are all clear.
So not sure kung nakatulong sa processing yung ginawa ko.

Hi po, sa mga 491 visa applicant. Just want to confirm kung under anong classification ang 491 kapag nag rerequest ng medical appointment specifically sa NHS (Temporary or Permanent). Salamat.

hi, wanted to ask, submitted medical as of april 11, haven't received any feedback since then - is that it? if it has been more than a month, is that as good as Ok? thanks to those who will reply

If ang naka lagay sa immi account mo is "health clearance provided - no action required", okay na medical mo. Pag "ready for assessment - no action required", meaning di pa okay medical mo, may chance ka pang iemail ni BUPA na need mo further exams. Check mo spam folder ng email mo, baka andun email ng home affairs/BUPA

Thank you! Wala naman sinabi si SLEC sinabi na may issue sya, wala din sya natanggap na tawag or email notif from them. Actually nag email din sya kung pwede nya mahingi sana ang copy ng results just to understand lang bakit may holdup sa Bupa, pero no response. So medyo nag aalala lang kami hehe

I have the same situation for my mom-in-law pero for TV600 visitor. 2weeks na kaming nag hihintay nang naka ready for assessment sya. Tinawagan sya ng NHS na kung meron syang previous results ng XRAY. Tapos ayon sabi ok naman daw tapos isasubmit na sa immi.
2weeks waiting today wala pang results.
Nakakapag alala na hehe.

Did they request previous results ng xray nya before pa nila nasubmit sa immi and before it showed na it's ready for assessment? Samin kasi talaga, wala. Nakakainis din kasi when we contacted SLEC, walang response. Until today, di pa din sya cleared.

Yes, they requested and after makita, sabi ok naman daw at isusubmit na nila. But til now, ganoon parin. Still ready for assessment. Kaya nawoworry kami. Hopefully, makita na namin un results para makamove forward na.

Hello po, magandang gabi. May tanong lang po ako. Meron po bang naka-experience na pinag-sputum at nag-negative naman sa smear pero pinag-TB medication pa rin ni St Lukes Ermita?
To give context po, may nakita po kasi opacity dun sa xray ng wife ko. Then si BUPA nagfeedback na for sputum test siya. However, before the sputum test nag-pacheckup kami sa Pulmo namin. Then si Pulmo nagbigay ng TB medications so tinake ng wife ko. Nagprescribe sya ng medications to please the DHA daw kaya tinake na namin. Madami daw kasi sya Patients before na pinag-sputum din ni St Lukes.
Ayun, after the sputum test, nag-negative nga sa smear test pero sinabi namin sa Panel Doctor doon na nagmedication na si wife for a month dahil nagpa-checkup kami sa Pulmo namin. Ngayon ang sabi ni. St Lukes, baka daw negative ay dahil nag-medication na. Kaya pinatutuloy si wife ko ng medications nya. Ang catch lang is preggy si wife and 8 months daw bago matapos un medications nya sabi ni SL Ermita. Pero on the 6th month may xray ule sya. At isa pa, araw-araw(Mon-Fri) siya sa St. Lukes Ermita to take her medicines.
So ayun po, Meron po ba sa inyo na nag-negative na sa smear, culture at xray pero nag-continue parin ng medication?

Try this emedical to check the status of where is your medical at kung napasa na nila. If completed na po lahat sa remarks, most likely cleared na po kayo. Naka specifify din po dyan yung last update to DHA. Hope it helps.

@marksolito na clear ka naba? kakatanggap lang namin ng email from bupa, andami di namin gets haha
Clinical examination findings;
Results of 3 current smears and cultures (sputum samples taken
on 3 different mornings, or other appropriate specimens as clinically indicated) and cultures for
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (plus DST if cultures are positive).
Old chest x-rays for comparison (if available). Reports can be submitted if images available are not digital.
If TB has been excluded, please exclude other pathology that could cause the abnormal x-ray findings.
so need ba irule out muna ang TB? haha ayon daming tanong

Bale yan po yung mga additional tests na need nyo ipagawa bago ma clear ang medical nyo, tawag na po kayo agad sa St. Luke's para makapagpa schedule ng sputum test, mahaba ang queue nila ngayon dyan so baka more than a month pa ang magbigay na earliest available schedule sa inyo. Kaya yung 28 days na timeline na binigay ng Bupa to comply with the submission of the additional info eh hindi talaga magagawa kaya mag e-mail na lang po kayo sa kanila and request for further extension.
