What our Iowa doctors note covers

• Excused absence from work or school
• Common acute illnesses (flu, cold, stomach bug, migraine, back pain)
• Recovery time recommended by the reviewing physician
• Return-to-work and return-to-school documentation
• Employer- and school-accepted formatting with a physician signature

Our notes are intended for documentation of non-emergency conditions. Serious or emergency symptoms always require in-person care; in that case a Iowa physician will decline the request and you will not be charged.
