The referral appropriate for your job role will be provided by us! First, you need to coordinate with our colleague to determine what type of referral you’ll need. You can pick up the referral in person at our office, or if that’s not convenient, we can also send it to you by email. You’ll need to take the printed referral with you to the occupational health doctor. We’ll also inform you about the doctor’s office hours and contact details. Once you receive the completed medical results from the doctor, please upload them to your profile on ydiak.hu. If your job role requires a chest X-ray report, the occupational doctor will give you a referral to a lung care center at the end of the exam. After that, you’ll need to visit a chest X-ray station with the referral. You can then upload the final report to your profile as well!
