Obtain Your Sick Certificate Online with Ease

Medical suitability is a prerequisite for the issuance of a medical certificate from Irish GP.  This is a telehealth service that is not a replacement for in-person consultations with a general practitioner for critical care and emergencies.

  • Students and Employees: We exclusively provide online medical certificates for sick leaves.  Employees and pupils in higher education who are over the age of 18 are eligible to utilize it.

  • Ongoing Minor Illnesses: An online sick certificate is only valid for persistent minor illnesses, including the common cold, cough, sore throat, headache, upset stomach, and mild stress.  Please be advised that we are unable to retroactively update the document. Consequently, you must reach out to us on the day you take your leave and while you are still unwell.

  • Certificate Frequency: Clients are entitled for one medical certificate every 90 days.

  • Medical Advice: Please take notice that our certificate service does not provide medical advise.  If you have any health concerns, we urge that you schedule an appointment with a GP.

Are Medical Certificates Available for Purchase on GetHealthcare's Website?

Sick Notes Are Subject to Eligibility Criteria

We do not support the idea that you may buy a doctor's sick certificate for employment.  Your payment is for the GP's time, and you must fulfill our eligibility requirements to get approval.  It operates exactly the same way it does in the clinic.

When Will My Sickness Certificate Expire?

Sick Notes for One-Time Use

Online medical certifications for sick leave are only good for one time usage.

Is it possible to ask for an extension or revisions to my sick certificate?

Changes or Time Extensions

It is possible to make modifications to your symptoms, and if you believe you need to prolong your sick leave time, the procedure may cost a price if a re-evaluation is required or if your doctor's sick note has been issued.
