Immigration Physical Exam Cost in Charlotte NC and Requirements

At Eastway Medical Clinic, we understand that the cost of an immigration physical exam is an important consideration for our patients. In Charlotte, NC, the price for an immigration physical typically ranges between $200 and $350, depending on the provider and the specific services required. At Eastway Medical Clinic, our fees are transparent, and we strive to keep our services affordable without compromising quality.
 
Our standard fee for the immigration physical exam covers your medical evaluation, completion of the required I-693 form, and a basic physical assessment by our USCIS-designated civil surgeons. Please note that additional costs may apply if specific vaccinations, laboratory tests (such as blood work or tuberculosis screening), or follow-up visits are needed as part of the immigration process. Vaccinations are not always included in the initial exam cost; if required, they may add $50 to $200 or more, depending on which immunizations are needed and how many are required.
 
Most health insurance plans do not cover immigration physicals, as these are considered non-medically necessary services. We recommend that you contact Eastway Medical Clinic directly to confirm our current pricing and to discuss whether your quoted fee includes all required tests and vaccinations, or if those will be billed separately. For families or groups, ask us about any available package deals or discounts.
 
Remember, it is crucial to have your immigration physical exam performed by a USCIS-designated civil surgeon. At Eastway Medical Clinic, our providers are fully authorized to conduct and certify your exam, ensuring your documentation meets all immigration requirements.

At Eastway Medical Clinic, we provide comprehensive immigration physical exams for individuals and families seeking to meet U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requirements. Our board-certified civil surgeons are authorized to perform these exams and ensure all necessary steps are completed according to official guidelines.

The exam fee typically covers essential lab work, including blood tests for syphilis (such as RPR) and tuberculosis screening (via TB blood test or chest X-ray, based on age and risk factors).

Please Note:
The scope of what is included in your quoted fee will be explained in detail during your visit.

We encourage you to contact Eastway Medical Clinic ahead of your appointment with any questions about pricing or required documentation.

At Eastway Medical Clinic, we strive to make your immigration medical exam process as smooth and efficient as possible. The timeline for receiving your completed immigration exam paperwork, including Form I-693 (Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record), can vary based on several factors, such as laboratory test results, vaccination status, and the overall efficiency of the process.
 
Typical Timeline at Eastway Medical Clinic:
After you complete your immigration medical exam at our clinic, you can generally expect to receive your completed and sealed Form I-693 within about one week. In some cases, if all required lab results and vaccination records are readily available and there are no medical concerns, we may be able to prepare your paperwork in just a few days.
 
Factors That May Affect Processing Time:
Additional Testing: If further laboratory tests are required, or if any immunizations are missing and need to be administered, this may extend the processing time.
 
Medical Concerns: If any health issues are identified that require additional evaluation, the timeline may be longer.
 
What to Expect from Eastway Medical Clinic:
Before you leave our office, our staff will inform you of the expected timeline for your paperwork.
 
We will let you know whether you need to return to pick up your completed, sealed envelope (as required by USCIS) or if we can mail it to you.
We will also provide you with a copy of the completed paperwork for your records.
 
Follow-Up:
If you have not received your documents within one to two weeks after your initial appointment, please contact Eastway Medical Clinic to check on the status of your immigration exam paperwork.

For our younger patients, the requirements for an immigration physical are carefully tailored to their age and developmental stage. When you bring your child to Eastway Medical Clinic for an immigration physical, our experienced healthcare providers will:

• Review your child’s medical history
• Perform a thorough physical examination
• Screen for communicable diseases as required by USCIS guidelines
 
Immunization Review and Updates
Immunizations are a key part of the immigration physical for children. At Eastway Medical Clinic, we’ll review your child’s vaccination records and ensure they are up to date with age-appropriate vaccines, such as measles, mumps, rubella, polio, hepatitis B, and varicella, among others. If any immunizations are missing or overdue, our clinic can conveniently provide them during your visit.
 
Age-Appropriate Testing
Some tests and screenings differ for children compared to adults. For example, our clinic typically screens younger children for tuberculosis using a skin test, while older children and adults may require a chest X-ray. Certain adult-focused screenings, such as those for sexually transmitted infections, are usually not necessary for younger children unless there is a specific medical indication.
 
What to Bring to Your Appointment
To help us best serve your family, please bring any existing medical records and vaccination documentation to your child’s appointment. This ensures our team can accurately determine which immunizations or tests may be needed.
