§ 34.3 Scope of examinations.
(a) General. In performing examinations, medical examiners shall consider
those matters that relate to:
(1) A communicable disease of public
health significance;
(2)(i) A physical or mental disorder
and behavior associated with the disorder that may pose, or has posed, a
threat to the property, safety, or welfare of the alien or others;

(4) Any other physical abnormality,
disease, or disability serious in degree
or permanent in nature amounting to a
substantial departure from normal
well-being.
The scope of the examination shall include any laboratory or additional
studies that are deemed necessary, either as a result of the physical examination or pertinent information elicited from the alien’s medical history,
for the examining physician to reach a
conclusion about the presence or absence of a physical or mental abnormality, disease, or disability.
(b) Persons subject to requirement for
chest X-ray examination and serologic
testing. (1) Except as provided in paragraph (b)(1)(v) of this section, a chest
X-ray examination, serologic testing
for syphilis and serologic testing for
HIV of persons 15 years of age and older
shall be required as part of the examination of:
(i) Applicants for immigrant visas;
(ii) Students, exchange visitors, and
other applicants for a nonimmigrant
visa who are required by a consular authority to have a medical examination;

(iii) Aliens outside the United States
who apply for refugee status;
(iv) Applicants in the United States
who apply for adjustment of status
under the immigration statute and regulations;
(v) Exceptions. Neither a chest X-ray
examination nor serologic testing for
syphilis and HIV shall be required if
the alien is under the age of 15. Provided, a tuberculin skin test shall be
required if there is evidence of contact
with a person known to have tuberculosis or other reason to suspect tuberculosis, and a chest X-ray examination shall be required in the event of a
positive tuberculin reaction, and serologic testing where there is reason to
suspect infection with syphilis or HIV.
Additional exceptions to the requirement for a chest X-ray examination
may be authorized for good cause upon
application approved by the Director.
(2) Tuberculin skin test examination. (i)
All aliens 2 years of age or older in the
United States who apply for adjustment of status to permanent residents,
under the immigration laws and regulations, or other aliens in the United
States who are required by the INS to
have a medical examination in connection with a determination of their admissibility, shall be required to have a
tuberculin skin test. Exceptions to this
requirement may be authorized for
good cause upon application approved
by the Director. In the event of a positive tuberculin reaction, a chest X-ray
examination shall be required. If the
chest radiograph is consistent with tuberculosis, the alien shall be referred
to the local health authority for evaluation. Evidence of this evaluation
shall be provided to the civil surgeon
before a medical notification may be
issued.
(ii) Aliens less than 2 years old shall
be required to have a tuberculin skin
test if there is evidence of contact with
a person known to have tuberculosis or
other reason to suspect tuberculosis. In
the event of a positive tuberculin reaction, a chest X-ray examination shall
be required. If the chest radiograph is
consistent with tuberculosis, the alien
shall be referred to the local health authority for evaluation. Evidence of this
evaluation shall be provided to the

civil surgeon before a medical notification may be issued.
(3) Sputum smear examination. All
aliens subject to the chest X-ray examination requirement and for whom the
radiograph shows an abnormality consistent with pulmonary tuberculosis
shall be required to have a sputum
smear examination for acid-fast bacilli.
(4) How and where performed. All
chest X-ray films used in medical examinations performed under the regulations in this part shall be large
enough to encompass the entire chest
(approximately 14 by 17 inches; 35.6×43.2
cm.). Serologic testing for HIV shall be
a sensitive and specific test, confirmed
when positive by a test such as the
Western blot test or an equally reliable
test. For aliens examined abroad, the
serologic testing for HIV must be completed abroad, except that the Attorney General after consultation with
the Secretary of State and the Secretary of Health and Human Services
may in emergency circumstances permit serologic testing of refugees for
HIV to be completed in the United
States.
(5) Chest X-ray, laboratory, and treatment reports. The chest X-ray reading
and serologic test results for syphilis
and HIV shall be included in the medical notification. When the medical examiner’s conclusions are based on a
study of more than one chest X-ray
film, the medical notification shall include at least a summary statement of
findings of the earlier films, followed
by a complete reading of the last film,
and dates and details of any laboratory
tests and treatment for tuberculosis.
(c) Procedure for transmitting records.
For aliens issued immigrant visas, the
medical notification and chest X-ray
film, if any, shall be placed in a separate envelope which shall be sealed and
attached to the alien’s visa in such a
manner as to be readily detached at
the U.S. port of entry. When more than
one chest X-ray film is used as a basis
for the examiner’s conclusions, all
films shall be included.
(d) Failure to present records. When a
determination of admissibility is to be
made at the U.S. port of entry, a medical hold document shall be issued
pending completion of any necessary
examination procedures. A medical

hold document may be issued for aliens
who:
(1) Are not in possession of a valid
medical notification, if required;
(2) Have a medical notification which
is incomplete;
(3) Have a medical notification which
is not written in English;
(4) Are suspected to have an excludable medical condition.
(e) The Attorney General, after consultation with the Secretary of State
and the Secretary of Health and
Human Services, may in emergency
circumstances permit the medical examination of refugees to be completed
in the United States.

carried out in accordance with such
technical instructions for physicians
conducting the medical examination of
aliens as may be issued by the Director. Copies of such technical instructions are available upon request to the
Director, Division of Quarantine,
Mailstop E03, CDC, Atlanta GA 30333.

Provided, however, That a Class A medical notification of a physical or mental disorder, and behavior associated
with that disorder that may pose, or
has posed, a threat to the property,
safety, or welfare of the alien or others, shall in no case be issued with respect to an alien having only mental
shortcomings due to ignorance, or suffering only from a condition attributable to remediable physical causes or
of a temporary nature, caused by a
toxin, medically prescribed drug, or
disease.
(2) The medical notification shall
state the nature and extent of the abnormality; the degree to which the
alien is incapable of normal physical

condition is remediable. The medical
examiner shall indicate the likelihood,
that because of the condition, the applicant will require extensive medical
care or institutionalization.
(c) Class B medical notifications. (1) If
an alien is found to have a physical or
mental abnormality, disease, or disability serious in degree or permanent
in nature amounting to a substantial
departure from normal well-being, the
medical examiner shall report his/her
findings to the consular or INS officer
by Class B medical notification which
lists the specific conditions found by
the medical examiner. Provided, however, that a Class B medical notification shall in no case be issued with respect to an alien having only mental
shortcomings due to ignorance, or suffering only from a condition attributable to remediable physical causes or
of a temporary nature, caused by a
toxin, medically prescribed drug, or
disease.
(2) The medical notification shall
state the nature and extent of the abnormality, the degree to which the
alien is incapable of normal physical
activity, and the extent to which the
condition is remediable. The medical
examiner shall indicate the likelihood,
that because of the condition, the applicant will require extensive medical
care or institutionalization.
(d) Other medical notifications. If as a
result of the medical examination, the
medical examiner does not find a Class
A or Class B condition in an alien, the
medical examiner shall so indicate on

the medical notification form and shall
report his findings to the consular or
INS officer.
[56 FR 25003, May 31, 1991]

§ 34.5 Postponement of medical examination.
Whenever, upon an examination, the
medical examiner is unable to determine the physical or mental condition
of an alien, completion of the medical
examination shall be postponed for
such observation and further examination of the alien as may be reasonably
necessary to determine his/her physical
or mental condition. The examination
shall be postponed for aliens who have
an acute infectious disease until the
condition is resolved. The alien shall
be referred for medical care as necessary.

Medical and other care; death.

(a) An alien detained by or in the

in need of emergency care in the course
of medical examination shall be treated to the extent deemed practical by
the attending physician and if considered to be in need of further care, may
be referred to the INS along with the
physician’s
recommendations
concerning such further care.
