The Abu Dhabi Health Services Company ‘SEHA’ has recently updated its Visa Screening app with a range of new features.

The updates, which are now available for iOS and Android devices, includes an appointment booking feature for companies and groups. Additionally, it also now has an online payment through Apple Pay and Samsung Pay.

Users can now also log in using the UAE Pass to ease with registrations. The application has now also been integrated with the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security thus allowing automatic loading of data.

According to SEHA, the first version of the app was downloaded more than 60,000 times and more than 73,000 appointments booked through it.

“With the new update, companies will be able to book appointments for their employees with a few simple steps, while the online prepayment option will remove the need for using cash,” said Dr Omar Al Hashmi, Chief Clinical Affairs Officer at Ambulatory Healthcare Services.

“We are continuously working on ways to support our corporate partners and provide them with easy access to our services by utilising the latest technology and opening centers across the Emirate, in addition to recently launching the mobile visa clinic for companies.”

Abu Dhabi automates patient experience at hospitals

Residents in Abu Dhabi are required to visit Disease Prevention & Screening Centres to undergo the medical check-up prior to getting or renewing their visa. Previously, clients visited the centres on a walk-in basis, but with the new app residents now have the option to select an allotted time to suit them, ensuring a seamless process.

SEHA currently runs 12 Disease Prevention & Screening Centers located in Abu Dhabi City, Mussafah, Al Shahama, Baniyas and Etihad Visa Screening Center in addition to Sweihan, Madinat Zayed, Delma, Sila, Ghayathi and Al Marfa. In addition, SEHA recently launched the Mobile Visa Screening Clinic for companies.
