Step By Step

The Immigration Medical Checkup Process

  1. Fill out the immigration medical assessment form and have your photo taken.
  2. We create your file and set up your Immigration Medical Health Case Number on the NZ eMedical system.
  3. Your chest X-ray is contracted to Allevia Radiology, Mairangi Bay.
  4. It's helpful to wear clothing that's easy to put on and off — please avoid wearing jewellery.
  5. If you are pregnant, please bring evidence of pregnancy (a midwife report with due date, or an ultrasound report, in English).
  6. Urine tests aren't performed during menstruation — we suggest waiting 7 days after your period finishes.
  7. If your first urine test is abnormal, a second urine test will be required on the same day.
  8. If the second test also fails, your urine sample may be sent to Awanui Lab for testing, at extra cost to you.
  9. A Limited Medical exam does not require a urine test.
  10. Blood test: no fasting required. Further testing may be required if initial results are abnormal, at additional cost.
  11. Nurse assessment: height, weight, blood pressure, and visual acuity/eye test (glasses may be required). Any abnormal finding will require a doctor's review and report.
  12. Doctor assessment: a regular body check for all ages. Women 45 or older will require a breast exam — we can provide a female chaperone, or you can book with a female doctor. Patients 70 or older require a cognitive test (RUDAS). Any abnormal findings will require a doctor's review and report.
  13. Completion and submission: your completed case is submitted to Immigration NZ via the eMedical system once all exams and tests are complete.
