ANSWERS to the QUESTIONS YOU HAVE

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can apply for this?

This is open to Canadian employees who cannot work for medical reasons and do not have access to short term disability benefits through their workplace. Employees can apply for EI sickness benefits to receive financial assistance while on sick leave.

What do I need to have my form completed?

To ensure your certificate (EI paperwork for EI sickness benefit) is completed smoothly, please make sure you have your home address, date of birth, phone number, and Social Insurance Number (SIN) on hand when booking your appointment.

How can I schedule an appointment?

You can book your virtual appointment online from your phone or computer. If you run into any issues while trying to fill out EI form bookings, email our team at cm.support@phzio.com.

What if there is an error on my form? Do I have to repay to have the form re-issued?

Simple errors can be corrected and your EI form can be reissued to you at no cost. You will be able to flag errors and your signing provider will fix the form. If you need a reassessment or a leave extension, there will be a fee and you will need to schedule a new appointment.

Do I need to book a follow-up appointment?

Only if your leave needs to be extended. If you require more time off than what is listed on your current medical certificate, please book an appointment to obtain an updated certificate with new dates. There will be a fee associated with this.

If I have other questions, can I speak with someone?

Yes. Please email our team at cm.support@phzio.com and request a phone call. One of our support members will reach out to you directly to assist with any questions you may have.

How long after my appointment will I receive my completed Medical Certificate for EI Sickness Benefits?

You will receive your fully completed and signed Medical Certificate within 24 hours of your appointment so you can prevent delays and check your Service Canada EI claim status sooner. Please note you may experience short delays over a weekend or statutory holiday.

What should I do with my form once it's signed?

Once your EI form has been received, visit the Government of Canada EI Sickness Benefits page to submit your EI medical certificate online. Follow their step-by-step application process to finalize your claim.

Can I get an appointment on the weekend?

While we do have availability on weekends, these time slots fill up fast. Please do not leave the appointment until the last minute.

Can you prescribe medications or order tests for me?

Phzio does not replace the treatment you have been receiving for your medical condition. Please note that while our team can help you fill out your EI medical certificate, they will not prescribe any medications or order any tests for you and will not take over the role of treating provider.

What happens if I need to cancel or I miss the appointment?

If you cancel at least 24 hours before your appointment is scheduled to start, Phzio will reimburse you the full amount and can help you reschedule. If you cancel within 24 hours of your appointment time or you do not show up to the appointment, you will not be reimbursed.
