Do You Have To Pay For A Doctors Note? Doctors notes are a free accommodation provided you pay for medical care.
An employees medical details are protected by FMLA and HIPAA laws. Employers may not request information about their medical conditions or copies of medical records. However, an employer can ask for certifications of the condition and call the doctor to confirm the information on the doctors note.
HIPAA limits what your healthcare provider can disclose to your employer without your consent. Verifying basic information on a doctors note may be the only details shared with your employer. However, there are exceptions, such as workers compensation, where sharing your medical information may be warranted.
