Is this right for you?

A quick gut-check before you book. Your practitioner makes the final call after a real-time assessment.

Often a good fit if
  • You need a certificate for work or study
  • Your illness is minor and you are located in Australia
  • You can briefly describe your symptoms in a short consult
Best to speak with us first if
  • You need cover backdated beyond what is clinically appropriate
  • You are seriously unwell and may need in-person care
  • You need a certificate for a legal or insurance matter that requires examination
