GPs issue dozens of certificates per week. Manual drafting is slow and error-prone. Clinit's 7 pre-built certificate templates auto-populate patient data and produce print-ready documents in under a minute.
The Hidden Time Cost of Certificates
A GP seeing 40 patients per day may issue 8–12 medical certificates: sick leave for employers, fitness certificates for gyms or schools, pre-employment medicals, travel fitness, and insurance medical reports. Each takes 3–5 minutes to draft manually — adding up to 45–60 minutes of daily administrative work that generates no clinical value.
