How to confirm medicals have been received?
Hi
Has anyone out there managed to get confirmation that their medicals have been received? Mine were posted directly by the panel doctor via Royal Mail 'International Signed For Delivery'.
When I check the status of delivery on their web site it just says 'package has been passed to international carrier'. When I phone Royal Mail they are unhelpful to say the least!
Any advice greatfully received.

We have never had any problems! I am phoning receptionist back this am to give her my casefile no to put on meds and x-rays then she will be sending them - what do you think I should do? I feel if meds are lost during posting then this is the Dr's responsibility and the Dr should have to repeat them free of charge - is this so? Should I just organise a courier like DHL who I have already used several times? Not sure how to do that if DHL are to collect meds from Dr directly?

If the doctors insist then I would get signed confirmation from them that if the medicals are lost (and cannot be located within a certain period or proved to have arrived at their destination) they will redo every part at no cost to yourselves.
