Congrats. Ever since they started this new policy it has been a nightmare. Is it something that the USEM has to issue?

Yes many calls and emails to the US Embassy in Manila... not sure which exact inquiry worked but they sent it out of the blue at some point...

If anyone is wondering, it took many calls and emails but after more than 3 months the health case number was finally issued!

Don't do that.  Your trip will just be wasted.  You won't be able to talk to a consul officer at all.  If your medical is not completed, you will not even be able to get past the document screening.  The embassy staff will turn you away and tell you to book a new interview schedule.

 

OK, thank you for the warning - I will keep contacting them and postponing until they issue the health case number then. 

Thank you - I will check facebook's experiences. 

I have contacted the embassy via their hotline and email regularly for the past 3 months but all they do is postpone the interview due to missing health case number but never actually issue the number. 

I am thinking of attending the interview without the new medical even though I live far from Manila in the hope that the interviewing officer will fix this.

The HCN Inquiry is within SLEC?.  https://slec.ph/

Under U.S.A Visa Applicants:

 

Sadly this tool just tells you "Your Health Case is NOT yet available. Please coordinate with the U.S. Embassy Manila."

Did you get this resolved? I am in the same boat... St Luke's refuses to schedule an appointment stating that repeat medical require a health case number from the Embassy. I have been requesting this number from the Embassy since december 2021 to no avail.

If I try to schedule as if it is a new medical examination, St Luke's system flags me as having done a previous exam and requires this health case number to proceed.

I have to undergo another medical examination however St Luke's refuses to schedule an appointment stating that repeat medical require a health case number from the Embassy. I have been requesting this number from the Embassy since december 2021 to no avail and keep postponing interviews. 

If I try to schedule as if it is a new medical examination, St Luke's system flags me as having done a previous exam and requires this health case number to proceed.

Any suggestion on what to do?
