Documentation
When preparing for your immigration physical, it's essential to bring the right documentation. Here's a quick checklist:
- Government-issued ID: Passport or driver’s license to verify your identity.
- Form I-693: We will email you Form I-693 which will need to be filled out in black ink.
- Immigration paperwork: Bring any documents that provide context for your application.
- Vaccination & medical history records
- Questions for the doctor: A printed list to ensure you address any concerns about the process or your health.
Vaccinations and Medical History
Vaccination records are a key part of your immigration physical. Here's what you’ll need:
- Vaccination history: Official records for vaccines like MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis), and any others required by U.S. immigration.
- Medical history: Bring details about any past surgeries, hospitalizations, or chronic conditions that may impact your health.
- Current medications: List medications you take, including dosages and purposes.
- Tuberculosis: If applicable, bring past chest X-ray or TB test results.
Payment and Insurance
Don’t forget to plan for payment before your appointment. Here’s what to keep in mind:
- Out-of-pocket expenses: Immigration physicals are typically not covered by insurance, so be ready to pay for the exam and any additional services like vaccines or lab tests.
- Confirm costs: Call the urgent care center ahead of time to confirm the price of the physical and accepted payment methods (credit cards, cash, etc.).
- Insurance coverage: AFC Fort Collins accepts insurance for certain services that you may need now or in the future
