Why Must Dad Wait a Year for Medical Certificate? [split topic]

[Aisa30 0]

Hi everyone, my father finished his tb treatment outside st lukes and they asked for medical certificate.  After like 2 weeks they called my sister and told her that my dad has to wait for a year! i was very upset and they didnt really explain anything to her. ive been sending them emails and no response. Its really frustrating. I dont even know what to do. Does anyone here knows why my father has to wait for another year even though he submitted the medical cerficate that he has been treated?

 Most likely because he was treated outside of St. Luke's, which is the ONLY hospital authorized to complete the medicals and treat for TB for USEM.  SLEC has to follow the rules as dictated by CDC

It's because he had his treatment outside of St. Lukes. Although I did not undergo TB treatment, this was explained to me during my pulmonary evaluation after the sputum test.
