American Club Circular No. 16/13 1 JUNE 18, 2013 CIRCULAR NO. 16/13 TO MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION Dear Member: PRE-EMPLOYMENT MEDICAL EXAMINATION (PEME) PROGRAM: NEWLY-APPROVED CLINIC IN PIRAEUS, GREECE Your Managers are pleased to report the further development of the Club’s PEME program. With immediate effect, the following clinic in Piraeus, Greece has been approved: Panagia I Odigitria – General Clinic. 55-57 Aitolikou St. 18545 Piraeus, Greece. Tel: + 30 210 46 11 204-6. Fax: +30 210 46 11 256. E-mail: po_clinic@otenet.gr. Contact person: Mr. Elias Laios, Director of Patients Services. Mobile: +30 694 58 58 530. Please note that mandatory PEMEs at Club-approved clinics will continue to apply only to seafarers from Bulgaria, India, Indonesia, Latvia, Philippines, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation and Ukraine. Seafarers from Greece are not required to undergo PEMEs. However, the newly-approved clinic in Piraeus, together with the existing facility, are available for PEMEs on crew from the mandated countries mentioned above. Accordingly, Members may find the use of the clinic(s) in Greece more convenient, and therefore preferable, to repatriating such crew to their home countries for the purpose of attending clinics there. An updated list of all American Club PEME program approved clinics and medical forms can be found at the American Club website under Loss Prevention at www.american-club.com. Should Members have any questions, they are asked to contact Dr. William Moore, Senior Vice President at +1 212 847 4542 or by e-mail at william.moore@american-club.com. Yours faithfully, Joseph E.M. Hughes, Chairman & CEO Shipowners Claims Bureau, Inc., Managers for THE AMERICAN CLUB
