Does GAMCA Share Your Medical Report with Employers?

Yes, GAMCA shares your medical report with employers, but not in a way that compromises your full medical privacy. The system is designed for official verification rather than for a full data dump of your health records.

Here's a breakdown of how the process works:

• The Official Online Verification Portal

  The key to the entire process is the official online portal, which is a centralized database. Once your medical test is complete, the results from the GAMCA-approved medical center are uploaded to this system.

  • Who can access it? Only authorized parties, primarily the employer, the embassy, or the visa processing agency, can access this portal to verify your medical status.
  • What information is shared? The portal provides a clear "Fit" or "Unfit" status. It also includes the specific reason for an "unfit" result, such as a positive test for a communicable disease like Hepatitis or an abnormal chest X-ray.

• The Final Report

  While the employer sees the summary status online, the final official medical certificate, which you will receive, serves as the formal proof. This certificate is what you will submit as part of your visa application. It contains your personal details, a summary of the tests conducted, and the final "Fit" or "Unfit" declaration.

• Purpose of the System

  The primary purpose of this system is to prevent the entry of individuals with communicable diseases into GCC countries and to ensure that an applicant is physically capable of performing their job. By making the report accessible to employers, the system streamlines the visa process and reduces the risk of document fraud.

• Confidentiality

  While the system is not fully confidential from the employer and the relevant government authorities, it is not public. The information is only shared with the parties directly involved in your visa and employment application. Your full, detailed medical history and test results are not broadcast to your employer in an uncontrolled manner. They only get the information necessary for them to make a hiring and visa decision based on health standards.
