Frequently Asked Questions
Is a physician note valid for Ontario employers?
Yes. MedLetter physician notes are issued by CPSO-licensed doctors and meet all Ontario Employment Standards Act requirements. There is no legal distinction between a physician note issued virtually and one from an in-person visit.
What's the difference between a physician note and a sick note in Ontario?
They are the same document. Some employers use 'physician note' as the formal term, while others say 'doctor's note' or 'sick note.' All refer to official medical documentation confirming your absence was medically warranted.
Can I get a physician note without a family doctor in Ontario?
Yes. MedLetter does not require you to have a family doctor. Over 2.2 million Ontarians lack a GP — our service exists specifically to fill this gap.
How much does a physician note cost in Ontario?
MedLetter charges $49 flat fee. Walk-in clinics typically charge $30-$80 plus 3-5 hours of your time. Under Ontario's ESA, employers cannot require sick notes for absences under 3 days, but many still do.
Will my Ontario employer know the note was issued online?
Our documentation does not specify whether the assessment was virtual or in-person. It simply confirms that a CPSO-licensed physician reviewed your case and that your absence was medically warranted.
