Information note IMCA D 20\/01<\/a>, issued in July 2001 (revised January 2020), advised members of the requirements for doctors who undertake annual medical examination of divers, in light of the UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE) withdrawal of recognition of doctors operating outside the UK.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, twelve members in the Middle East & India region agreed jointly to recognise a number of doctors to conduct diver medicals to the standard cited in IMCA D 20\/01.\u00a0 The mutually recognised list of doctors was publicised via information note IMCA D 10\/02, updated by D 09\/03, D 07\/06, D 12\/06, D 06\/09, D 08\/10 and D\u00a005\/12.\u00a0 Twenty-three diving contractors in that region have now further updated their list of jointly recognised doctors and have asked IMCA to publicise the attached note.<\/p>\n

While IMCA is not in a position to approve or recognise doctors, it welcomes this contractor initiative and is pleased to publicise the agreement, a copy of which is attached.<\/p>\n

This list supersedes all previously published lists.<\/p>\n
