Physicians Forms


Recommended Posts

I'm wondering if anyone has looked into getting the Physician forms filled in (Tuberculin test, blood test, chest x-ray, etc).

 

I've called many medical clinics, but they are all charging me >$120 to have the work done.

 

They say that because it's a third-party request, OHIP won't cover it.

 

 

I've also spoken to my Uni's Health Services, but they're surprisingly clueless on prices.

 

Can anyone please make some suggestions on getting this paperwork filled out for rock bottom prices?

 

 

Thanks.

hey koft,

 

I'm already doing just what you suggested. I went to visit the damned Health Services center at my school (they couldn't get their heads around this on the phone) and they told me the results for the blood-work will take roughly 3 weeks to get back if I'm lucky. I'd rather not wait.

 

I'm just going to the next-door walk in clinic tomorrow and getting this stuff over with. It will be done in a few days maximum, but I'm still going for it--- even if it is costing me $140. This gives me the chance to get any mistakes corrected well before the due dates.

Sorry bud.. I know it sucks. of course, better to submit everything before the due date.

 

As for the $140 it will be a minute portion of your overall cost of 4 years in dental school. less than 1/1000th of it. Sad but true.

That sounds odd: last year for the UWO requirements (chest x-ray, Hep-B status, etc) I just went to my family doctor and he sent me for a blood test and xray and there was no charge :)

  • 2 weeks later...

i just got my forms filled out today for UofT and my GP did it for free... she never even mentioned a charge for it...

and since i had my immunization records from my pediatrician, i only needed my TB test... so it was quick and virtually painless :)
