Our Nurse Practitioners are fully qualified to issue medical certificates, just like a GP.
​
If your Medicare eligibility allows you to see a Nurse Practitioner, this means a bulk billing GP would not be allowed to consult you under Medicare rules.
​
Only the practitioner who consulted you may sign your medical certificate, so unfortunately, we cannot issue co-signed certificates.
​
If you require a medical certificate signed by a GP but are not eligible to see one of our bulk billing doctors, we recommend visiting your local GP for support on your request.
