You cannot go for the x-ray until after you have come to our office, have a photo taken and the papers prepared for the x-ray exam.
You need to take the following 4 items:
I.D. - best is a passport
A paper which we will give you before leaving our office. This page has a bar code and health case number on it. The X-ray facility will use this information to look up your case in the system.
The x-ray requisition which we will give you.
A credit card or debit card - the fee for the x-ray is $55.00 per person
Even if you have had a chest x-ray recently you will still have to have another one as we have to follow the designated protocol. The staff have to check your passport and verify that the person in the passport is the same person having the xray
Please note that if you are female and are pregnant or could be pregnant, you need to discuss the risks/ benefits of x-ray with me prior to having the chest x-ray.
