Online Medical Certificates from $19.90

An online medical certificate is known as an online sick certificate, sick note, online doctor’s certificate, or online med cert. It is an official document issued by a doctor after a digital consultation, rather than an in-person visit.

An online medical certificate or an online doctor's certificate, verifies that an individual has been unable to work or attend school due to a medical condition.

Online Medical Certificates certified by Australian registered doctors hold the same legal validity as in-person medical certificates. A reputable telehealth platform, such as NextClinic, adheres to Australian Medical Association (AMA) Guidelines in issuing these legitimate online medical certificates.

Our online medical certificates include the practice address, contact details, and the issuing doctor's AHPRA registration details. However, we do not disclose detailed diagnoses to maintain confidentiality. Our medical certificates also come with a QR code or verification link, allowing your employer or school to easily verify them.

The benefits of Online Medical Certificates are convenience, efficiency and cost-effectiveness. With online medical certificates, waiting in the doctor’s clinic, spreading germs, and prolonging recovery are things of the past.You can easily get a medical certificate from the comfort of your home, allowing you to recover from your illness more quickly.

NextClinic offers online medical certificates for work or university. Our medical certificates are certified by Australian registered doctors. Our affordable online medical certificates start at $19.90. You can request either a single-day or two-day certificate via our online medical certificate pathway.

NextClinic's doctors can issue 1-day or 2-day online medical certificates for work or university with each consultation. Due to the limitations of telehealth, we ensure that patients seek medical attention if their symptoms persist for more than 2 days. However, we understand that some viral illnesses may last longer than 2 days. We may issue repeat 1-day or 2-day medical certificates consecutively, at the discretion of the doctors reviewing the patient's request. While we aim to make the process of obtaining online medical certificates convenient and accessible, we also prioritise patient safety.

We will be offering multi-day online medical certificates (longer than 2 days) once we have implemented the functionality to conduct general consultations. We want to ensure that patients who are unwell enough to require multiple days off are thoroughly assessed, investigated, and treated accordingly.

Common reasons to request medical certificates online include self-limiting minor illnesses such as viral infections, the common cold, usual migraines, period pain, gastro, and exhaustion/stress. These conditions typically do not require any specific treatment beyond rest and hydration at home.

NextClinic cannot backdate medical certificates under any circumstances. However, our two-day medical certificate can cover yesterday if you are still unwell with the same condition and require two days off to recover. These certificates are not technically considered backdated medical certificates.

While online GP medical certificates are highly convenient, some situations require in-person consultation. For serious conditions needing a physical examination, visiting a doctor in person is necessary to ensure accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. For most minor, self-limiting illnesses, an online medical certificate is an excellent choice.
