Is this right for you?

When telehealth may, and may not, suit

A certificate is only issued where a practitioner assesses it as clinically appropriate, and only after a consultation. It is never automatic. What you book is the consultation.

Telehealth may suit you if

  • Everyday concerns that can be talked through by video
  • You have a private space and a device with a camera
  • You want care that works alongside your regular GP

Better seen in person if

  • You need a hands-on physical examination
  • Symptoms that are severe or rapidly worsening
  • You need in-person tests or procedures the same day

Telehealth is not suitable for every health concern. Your practitioner may instead recommend in-person assessment, urgent care, a GP review, a referral to another doctor, further investigation or no treatment.

A prescription, referral or test is one possible outcome, only where your practitioner considers it clinically appropriate.

Results vary from person to person. An assessment does not guarantee any particular outcome.

Why NexaHealth

Your health, in one record.

Your consultations, results and care plan stay in one place. Everyday health, mental wellbeing and healthy ageing, carried forward from one appointment to the next.

Your results
pathology & imaging · in one place

When your practitioner refers you for pathology or imaging, your results are gathered securely in one place, so you and your care team can see the full picture.

One platform
everyday care to healthy ageing

GP care, mental health, chronic disease, weight and metabolic health, men’s and women’s health, preventive care and healthy ageing. Start with one, and your history moves with you across the rest.

Your care plan
written up · agreed with you

A clear plan, agreed with your practitioner. That may be advice, a referral, ongoing monitoring or a prescription, where clinically appropriate. Everything discussed in your consultation is written up and saved in one place. Follow-up and regular reviews keep the plan current as things change.

Your care plan Agreed with you

Everything from your consultation, kept in one place and updated as your care continues.

Medical Certificates questions

Is a medical certificate guaranteed?

No. A certificate is only issued where your practitioner assesses it as clinically appropriate, following a live video consultation. If they do not think one is appropriate, they will explain why and discuss what would help instead. The consultation is what you book.

Do I need a consultation to get a certificate?

Yes. Every certificate follows a live video consultation with a qualified Australian practitioner. They ask about your symptoms, consider your circumstances, and make a clinical assessment. A certificate is one possible outcome of that assessment, and the dates it covers are part of the same decision.

What kind of certificate can I get?

Your practitioner will discuss what is appropriate for your circumstances during the consultation, including the dates a certificate would cover. Requirements vary between workplaces and study providers, so it helps to have yours handy when you book so you can raise them on the call.

Can a certificate be backdated?

The dates a certificate covers are a clinical decision made by your practitioner, based on their assessment of your illness. They will discuss this with you during the consultation. A certificate records what your practitioner has assessed, so the dates follow the assessment rather than a request.
