Abstract of Proposed Collection
This electronic collection records
medical information necessary to
determine whether visa applicants have
medical conditions affecting the
applicant’s eligibility for a visa.
1 The majority of applicants only need to
complete medical examinations, and therefore these
forms once. However, medical exams are valid for
a period of three to six months from the
examination date. Therefore, if an applicant’s
medical examination expires prior to travel, then
the applicant may need to undergo a new medical
examination and therefore complete the forms more
than once.

Methodology
Approved panel physicians will be
granted access to an eMedical system by
the Department to conduct medical
examinations for visa eligibility
determinations. The pilot program for
the eMedical system launched in
September 2018. The eMedical system
was rolled out in six waves, the first
wave of the rollout was in July 2019,
and the final wave was in May 2020.
Immigrant visa applicants with a
completed and submitted DS–260,
Application for Immigrant Visa and
Alien Registration will have their
medical exam results submitted to the
Department via the eMedical system.
The panel physician will input the
exam information into the eMedical
portal and it will be transmitted to the
Department for visa adjudication and
retained in the Department’s systems.
The information will also be transmitted
to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (‘‘CDC’’) systems.
