Sick note guide

Work and school sick notes online in Virginia and West Virginia

This is a documentation-only pathway — no prescription is implied. The physician reviews your reported symptoms and requested dates and issues a signed note covering up to 5 days, never starting more than 48 hours before you submit your request. It's never used for FMLA, long-term disability, workers' compensation, or legal-dispute purposes.

If you're missing work or school because of a short illness, an async review can often get you a signed note quickly. This is documentation only — no prescription is implied — and it covers up to 5 days, starting no more than 48 hours before you submit your request. It is never used for FMLA, long-term disability, workers' compensation, or legal-dispute documentation, and the physician may decline (with a refund per standard policy) if warning signs are present or the details reported don't line up with the requested note.

If treatment is appropriate, your physician can send a non-controlled prescription to your pharmacy and provide portal instructions for the next step.

Start the request on the website, answer the fit questions, and choose the response window you want. If the concern still fits this service, a physician reviews it and sends a secure update after sign-in. When appropriate, non-controlled prescriptions can be sent to your pharmacy, and a basic work or school note can be included at physician discretion.

Can I get a note for FMLA, disability, workers' compensation, or a legal dispute?

No. This pathway provides a basic work/school documentation note only. FMLA, long-term disability, workers'-compensation, and legal-dispute documentation require an in-person exam and/or a purpose-specific form that QuickVisitMD does not complete.

How many days can the note cover, and how recent do my dates need to be?

Up to 5 days maximum, and the requested start date cannot be more than 48 hours before you submit your request.

Does this note come with a prescription?

No. This is a documentation-only product — no prescription is implied or issued by the note itself.

How does my employer or school verify the note?

The note includes a verification contact line — your employer or school can contact QuickVisitMD directly at admin@quickvisitmd.com to confirm it.
