e-prescription, sick leave (e-ZLA), referrals

Yes, in medically justified cases the doctor can issue you with a short-term sick leave certificate. Remember that this can only be done during a teleconsultation (it cannot be a prescription consultation).

A sick leave certificate is issued in the ZUS Electronic System and from there goes directly to the employer. You can log into your ZUS PUE account to check your issued sick leave certificate: https://www.zus.pl/pue.

Yes, in justified cases the doctor is entitled to issue an e-prescription. If you need a prescription renewal, book a prescription consultation and remember to submit medical documentation confirming the need for medication (e.g. a certificate from a specialist doctor). If you do not have the appropriate documentation, make an appointment for a teleconsultation, during which your doctor will be able to issue you with a prescription (in medically justified cases).

The prescription is issued electronically by the doctor and you will receive a code in a text message which you need to give to the pharmacy along with your PESEL number. Please note that if you wish to receive e-prescription codes by text message, you need to give your consent via your Internet Patient Account (IKP). For more information on how to do this, click here: https://pacjent.gov.pl/internetowe-konto-pacjenta/erecepta. You will also find the code for your e-prescription in your post-consultation recommendations when you log into your Patient Account on our platform: https://portal.global-teleclinic.com/login.

Cross-border e-prescription offers such an opportunity. This is an electronic prescription that you can use in a country other than the one in which it was issued. Currently, patients residing in Finland, Portugal, Croatia, Estonia and Spain can use this type of prescription. Cross-border e-prescriptions can be issued for adult patients. If you need a cross-border prescription for your child, your doctor has to issue it on paper. You can find out more about the cross-border e-prescription here: link to article.

Yes, during your consultation on the Global Teleclinic platform you may receive a referral from your doctor for laboratory tests or diagnostic imaging. Thanks to our partnership with the Diagnostyka laboratory network, laboratory tests are quickly arranged by going to your referrals in your Patient Account. In case of a referral for diagnostic imaging tests (e.g. X-ray or ultrasound), you will be able to have them done at the facility of your choice, but only for a fee.

Lekarz może wystawić receptę i/lub zwolnienie lekarskie tylko w uzasadnionych medycznie przypadkach. Odmowa lekarza z powodu braku podstaw nie daje możliwość ubiegania się o zwrot kosztów wizyty. W przypadku porady recepturowej brak odpowiedniego (aktualnego!) zaświadczenia od lekarza prowadzącego stanowi podstawę do odmowy wystawienia recepty. W takiej sytuacji Pacjentowi nie przysługuje zwrot kosztów. Szczegółowe informacje znajdziesz w naszym REGULAMINIE.
