Are children treated at the Digital Clinic?

Yes. The Digital Clinic is an excellent option for managing children's illnesses without having to take a sick child to the doctor. Remote consultations address children's illnesses that do not require a physical examination, such as cold symptoms, eye infections, rashes, and insect bites.When starting a conversation with a doctor, select your child's name from the menu. If the name is not visible, press "Add Family Member" and enter your child's personal identity code. If your child is under 12 years old, you can start the Digital Clinic conversation immediately. For children aged 12–17, creating a family connection (and acting on behalf of the child at the Digital Clinic) requires filling out a consent form at a Mehiläinen location together with the child. During the visit, both the parent's and the child's identities are verified, and both sign the consent form. The consent is valid until the child turns 18. Identification visits at Mehiläinen are legally required at ages 12 and 15. However, newborns cannot be added to the family profile. Usually, the connection can be made 1–3 months after the child's birth.

I started a visit but closed the conversation view. Can I return to the conversation?

Ongoing conversations are directly visible on the Digital Clinic's homepage under "Open Messages." By selecting the open conversation, you can return to it.

Can a remote physician prescribe sick leave?

A remote physician can prescribe short-term sick leaves. However, check whether your employer accepts sick leaves prescribed via the Digital Clinic. At some workplaces, an employee's own notification to their supervisor is sufficient for a few days of sick leave.The sick leave certificate will appear in the "Events" view on the Home screen, linked to the visit during which the sick leave was prescribed. Additionally, the certificate will also be available in the "Documents" tab of the Occupational Health view. The Occupational Health view contains other useful information related to your occupational health agreement. The certificate can be printed, saved, or sent electronically by clicking the PDF link under the "Sick Leave" heading.

What prescription medications can be renewed on the Digital Clinic without a doctor’s appointment?

There must always be a medical reason for renewing a prescription. Briefly describe the condition for which the medication was originally prescribed and your current health status.

The renewal fee for a prescription is 49 € after the Kela reimbursement.If, for any reason, the doctor cannot renew the prescription remotely, you will be directed to a traditional appointment or to your attending physician. In such cases, no fee will be charged for the Digital Clinic visit.Medications that primarily affect the central nervous system (CNS) or those with potential for misuse are not renewed or prescribed during remote consultations. Additionally, medications that are medically controversial, such as liothyronine, are not prescribed on the Digital Clinic.

Can prescriptions not visible in OmaMehiläinen be renewed on the Digital Clinic?

The prescription renewal service only allows the renewal of valid prescriptions visible in OmaMehiläinen. If you have a prescription issued elsewhere that you wish to renew, start a new discussion.

What does a Digital Clinic visit cost?
