Medical and X-ray in different locations

[lampbreaker]

Usually panel doctors have collaboration with a specific X-ray clinic, so they send you to that one. But has anyone gone to a different clinic or one in a different city? From what I know, the X-ray clinics don't send the X-rays back to the panel doctor, they upload directly to CIC, so technically it should be possible right?

Also, is there a list of approved X-ray clinics somewhere?

I don't think there is a list of X-Ray clinics. Also, I would suggest going to the XRay clinic suggested by the physician. From my experience, they told me they are going to send the XRay back to the physician for whatever reason it might be. (At least that's what they told me, Individual experiences may vary) I know it is technically possible it's just that I don't want to risk or delay in processing time due to this problem. Hope this helps.

It is better to approach the clinics in the panel and let them submit all the reports together through e-medical.

Yes, it is more convenient. But, my wife is pregnant and we will be doing her X-ray much later. We will prefer not to travel to the city where we did her medicals.

If you have a clinic in the panel, in your place, then you can do the x-ray there also. IME number should be provided, I think.
