What happens if my sick note from DrHouse is not accepted by my employer or school?

If your doctor’s note from DrHouse is not accepted, you may need to follow your employer’s or school’s specific documentation requirements or provide additional verification.

Quick Answer:

• Acceptance depends on employer or school policies
• You may be asked for additional documentation
• Standard notes may not meet all requirements
• A follow-up visit may be needed for extended documentation
• DrHouse does not complete third-party forms (e.g., FMLA)

Why a Doctor’s Note Might Not Be Accepted

Even though DrHouse notes are valid and signed by licensed physicians, some organizations have stricter requirements. They may:

• Require specific forms or templates
• Ask for more detailed medical documentation
• Have policies for extended absences that go beyond a standard note

This is especially common for workplace leave policies or school administrative requirements.

What You Can Do Next

If your note is not accepted, you can:

• Check requirements with your employer or school to understand what’s missing
• Request minor corrections by contacting DrHouse support if something needs adjustment
• Schedule a follow-up visit if additional evaluation or extended time off is needed

In some cases, your organization may require in-person evaluation or official paperwork that goes beyond a standard doctor’s note.

Important Limitations

• DrHouse provides standard doctor’s notes only
• It does not complete third-party forms such as FMLA, disability, or insurance paperwork
• Acceptance is not guaranteed and is outside of DrHouse’s control
• Longer or more complex documentation may require additional medical evaluation
