Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our telehealth Medical Certificates

All doctors at MediLeave are Australian-based and registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Additionally, our team meets the strict standards required for practising medicine locally. Working within the guidelines of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP), they offer care that aligns with healthcare expectations.

The process is straightforward, and it provides both simple online sick certificate requests and comprehensive clinical support. Our same-day telehealth appointments are accessible daily from 7am to 11pm AEST, without extra charges for consultations after hours or over the weekend.

Should you have everyday, non-emergency health concerns, you simply join a queue and receive a call for an online doctor consultation Australia-wide at the time slot selected by you.

It all depends on your condition if you need another online consultation for a medical certificate. If you believe you need to extend your sick leave, our doctors can reassess your situation and may issue another online sick certificate if it’s suitable.

It is also important to note that if your symptoms worsen or do not improve, then you need to seek medical assistance or consult a doctor in person.

Yes – online medical certificates are valid and legal and are the same as certificates obtained in-person. The only difference is online medical certificates are provided virtually. With MediLeave your symptoms and request for an online medical certificate is reviewed, considered and signed by an AHPRA-Registered Doctor/Healthcare professional. The Fair Work Act 2009 recognises them as legit documents that are acceptable for sick or carer’s leave. Read the Australian Medical Association’s guidelines here.

You can get a medical certificate online through MediLeave’s trusted service 24/7, connecting you with an AHPRA‑registered Australian doctor. Once the doctor reviews your information and approves your request, your certificate is sent to you by email—often within minutes. This option is ideal for short‑term, straightforward illnesses, though doctors may decline a certificate if they believe your condition requires an in‑person assessment.

Getting a certificate with MediLeave is simple and quick:

1.Complete a health questionnaire – Provide details about your symptoms and medical history.

2.Doctor review – Brief consultation with an AHPRA-registered doctor to review your details and information.

3.Receive your certificate – If approved, receive your certificate instantly via email.

At MediLeave we are committed to providing exceptional healthcare tailored to each individual patient. While we strive to accommodate all requests, the approval and issuing of the certificate is at the sole discretion of the reviewing Healthcare Professional and can be declined if they believe that an in-person consultation is required for your case for further evaluation and further recommendations. Additionally, it is against Australian law to issue a certificate if they do not believe your symptoms make you unfit for work or university, or if they have reason to believe you are untruthful about your symptoms.

Online certificates are generally available only to patients aged 16 years or older. Younger patients require an in‑person assessment by a GP or paediatrician to ensure an appropriate examination.

Unfortunately, we cannot backdate sick leave or medical certificates. In Australia, medical practitioners are advised against providing certificates for past dates, as doing so is considered unethical and may carry legal consequences. Medical certificates are intended to reflect a patient’s health status as assessed during the consultation. To uphold professional standards and ensure accuracy, certificates must be dated according to the actual day of the consultation.

Generally, yes. Your employer is likely to accept your medical certificate as evidence of your illness or injury. According to Fair Work Ombudsman, employers in Australia are legally required to accept medical certificates from registered medical practitioners to verify an employee’s absence due to illness or injury. MediLeave’s telehealth medical certificates are valid, containing the necessary information and are issued by qualified AHPRA registered medical practitioners. Some employers though may have their own policies in regards to sick leave certificates, and you should check with your employer first if an online medical certificate is acceptable by them.

You can get a medical certificate for colds, flu, or gastro in Australia. These conditions are usually minor and only require short time off, so our online Partner Doctors can often manage simple, short‑term cases. However, the doctor will always use their clinical judgement to decide whether an online certificate is appropriate for your specific situation. If your symptoms are severe, unusual, or not improving, you’ll need to see a GP in person.

You should also confirm with your employer/work that a certificate issued by a pharmacist will be suitable before using MediLeave as we also have Partner Pharmacists providing telehealth services.

Certificates are always dated (issue date) the date you made your request. The period of cover starts from the date of your request.
