    Health Examinations List


    You are required to undergo the following health examination(s) to ensure that you meet the
    health requirement.

    ● Medical Examination
    ● Chest X-ray Examination
    ● Serum Creatinine and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)

    You need to provide this letter to the clinic where you go to complete your Australian
    immigration health examinations.

    Additional health examinations may be required based on the results of your initial health
    examinations. In some cases our eMedical system will generate additional examinations in
    order to streamline the health process where possible.

    If a health examination is listed as 'Completed' this means that there is an existing


    examination that can be re-used for this visa application. You will not be asked to
    complete this examination again unless a repeat examination is required because
    your medical circumstances have changed or the examination has since expired. More
    information about when we allow you to use examinations again is available on our website
    immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-our-requirements/health/arrange-your-health-
    examinations

    If you have additional examinations that can be used again, contact us through ImmiAccount
    before you attend your appointment.

    If you have not yet completed the required health examinations: Make arrangements
    to undergo these examinations as soon as possible as outlined above so that your health
    results can be assessed and processing can continue.

    If you believe you have already completed the required health examinations at an
    eMedical clinic: Follow the instructions available on our website immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/
    help-support/meeting-our-requirements/health/after-your-health-examinations to check that
    the clinic has submitted your health results and follow up with them immediately if necessary.

    Use HAP ID mentioned in the application summary to book an appointment to undergo your
    health examinations. The information provided below will explain how to find a clinic, how to
    book an appointment and what you need to take to your appointment.

    Arranging your health examinations outside Australia


    Required health examinations are conducted by panel physicians (qualified doctors and
    radiologists nominated by the Department). More information is available on our website
    immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-our-requirements/health/arrange-your-health-
    examinations

    Panel physicians in your country may have access to process your health examinations
    using a secure online system called eMedical. To find out which panel clinics in your country
    offer online processing look for the eMedical logo [ ] on the list of the approved immigration
    panel physicians available on our website immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-
    our-requirements/health/arrange-your-health-examinations

    Arranging your health examinations in Australia


    Required health examinations in Australia are conducted by an approved migration medical
    services provider. This provider is currently Bupa Medical Visa Services. You can arrange an
    appointment with the online booking tool available on their website www.bupamvs.com.au

    What you need to do before making an appointment


    Before booking your appointment, you will need to complete the following steps:
    1. Log in to your ImmiAccount available at www.homeaffairs.gov.au/immiaccount
    2. Click on the View health assessment link on the left side panel from within your visa
    application.
    3. Click on the Organise your Health Examinations link on the right side panel under
    Examinations required.
    4. Consent to using the eMedical system and record your medical history where required.
    Medical history information is only requested where you are required to undertake
    a medical examination (501) as part of your immigration health examinations. This
    information must be provided before your immigration health examinations start, as the
    panel physician will take this information into account when conducting your medical
    examination.
    5. Print out your eMedical referral letter. This letter also contains your HAP ID.

    What do I need to bring to my health examination


    Bring the following to your appointment:
    ● an eMedical referral letter or this letter or other equivalent documentation provided to
    you by the Department
    ● a valid passport*
    ● your prescription spectacles or contact lenses, if applicable
    ● existing specialist and/or other relevant medical reports for known medical conditions
    ● any previous chest x-rays.

    *or an agreed form of alternative documentation to confirm your identity.

    If you are attending a non-eMedical enabled clinic you should download the correct
    paper health examinations forms from immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-
    our-requirements/health/arrange-your-health-examinations under 'What to bring to the
    appointment'.

    If you are pregnant


    If you are pregnant and required to complete a chest x-ray, you should discuss your options
    with your own treating doctor and the examining panel physician or radiologist. You may
    choose to either proceed with the chest x-ray, or defer this until after giving birth.

    If you have chosen to defer the chest x-ray requirement a decision will not be made on your
    application until after the birth of your child.

    If you are in Australia and are pregnant, you will have been asked to complete a hepatitis
    B test. Most applicants will complete hepatitis testing as part of their neo-natal care plan. If
    this applies to you provide your case officer with a copy of your test results. You should not
    attend a medical clinic in Australia to repeat this test.
