Applicants for immigration into the United States must meet certain medical standards, as assessed by the I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record. The purpose of the medical exam is to ensure that an applicant is “not inadmissible to the United States on public health grounds." Inadmissibility is defined in Act 212 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Accordingly, an alien is inadmissible if he or she has a communicable disease of public health significance, lacks the required vaccines, is a drug abuser or addict, or has a physical or mental disorder with a behavior, or history of a behavior, that is a threat to “the property, safety, or welfare of the alien or others”.
