Description

Triggering Participant

The Triggering Participant (you) is a Competent Institution who requires a Medical information for the purposes of checking a right/ entitlement under the provision of the Regulations

Other Participant(s)

Other Participant is an Institution (usually the MS of Residence/Stay) that is requested to carry out a medical examination of a person or to provide medical information.

Steps:

If you need to request such information, you have to fill out a ‘Request for Medical Information’ SED H120 by entering all the necessary

information about the required Medical Information. In case of a request for a medical report, please specify the type of report you would like (basic report, detailed report, etc.) and send the H120, including any attachments, to the Other Participant(s) in the state where the person resides/stays. The Other Participant(s) undertakes any national arrangement to have the person medically examined or find out the medical information requested and afterwards fills out and sends a ‘Reply/Notification for Medical Information’ SED H121 with all the required administrative information about the medical examination, if it has taken place, and might attach the Medical Report (short or detailed). The Use case ends here.
