How do I get a medical certificate through Tend?
To get a medical certificate.
1. You’ll need to first book an online appointment with a Tend doctor.
2. We’ll ask you some questions about your current state of health and get an understanding of what’s required on your medical certificate.
3. In some cases, we’ll need you to visit the clinic to issue your doctor’s certificate.
4. If we think medication could be helpful in getting you healthy and back on track, we’ll explore that too.
5. After your consultation, we’ll make the medical certificate available to you through your Tend app.

How do I pay for my Tend appointment?
**When you book your first appointment or enrol, you will be asked to enter card details – we accept credit and debit card.
**An authentication amount of $1 will then be applied to validate your card, and will be reimbursed once your card is confirmed.
**The Tend app uses bank-grade security and all your payment details are encrypted.
**We don’t charge you until after your appointment, so if you are entitled to any kind of discount (e.g. you have a Community Services Card) or fee waiver, you can discuss this with your care team during your appointment. Your card will then be charged at the end of your Tend consultation.
**If you do have a Community Services Card (CSC), please take a photo of the front and back of your card and send it to customer experience via the Tend app so we can enter your details into our system and ensure you are charged correctly.
