My wife and I are about to apply for a Talent (Accredited Employer) Work Visa, and in our journey of getting to NZ both have had eMedicals already, but both only had the X-Ray portion of it. Both of these were within the last 9 months. From looking through the process of applying for the visa, it looks like the good news is we fall under the below category of not needing an X-Ray again, but of course wanted to check
Presumably during the review of our application at INZ they'll be able to pull up the previous X-Rays without us having to provide further info?

You had a chest x-ray for an earlier visa application
If you sent us a chest x-ray certificate with an earlier visa application, you don’t need to have another x-ray unless either:
it’s been more than 3 years since you had the last one
since you had the last x-ray, you spent more than 6 months in a row in a country that doesn't have a low incidence of TB.
Although looking on the approved panel physicians section of the INZ website, the Medical only costs for a lot of them aren't a lot less than the full packages that others provide. Will keep shopping around!
