Medical certificates

A Workers’ Compensation Medical Certificate is a legal document used by Queensland’s workers’ compensation insurers to help assess an application for compensation and make continuing weekly compensation payments. Q-COMP, the workers' compensation regulatory authority, is responsible for the design and distribution of the medical certificates.

To see an appropriately completed medical certificate, Q-COMP’s web site has sample medical certificates and other information about completing medical certificates. Doctors should contact Q-COMP on 1300 789 881 to enquire about the electronic version of the certificate or to request more Workers’ Compensation Medical Certificates.
