Immigration, aviation & independent examinations

Assessment pathway

Designated or specialist practitioner

Suitability is determined by the physician. A virtual encounter is not a substitute for a needed examination, access to relevant records or a designated practitioner.

What the physician may need

• Exact program requirements
• Authorized examiner
• Separate consent and fee agreement

Do not send records or health information through the public partnership form.

Important limits

• Immigration panel physicians and aviation examiners require designation.
• Medico-legal expert opinions and IMEs are not routine notes.

Coverage and fees

An individual physician-approved quote, only after coverage and payer review.

Check the provincial plan, any employer or insurer payment, program-specific rules and tax treatment. Assessment and documentation must not be double-billed or bundled to conceal insured care.
