# Getting a doctor's note

Direct2Care providers can issue notes for work, school, or any other purpose that requires documentation of your visit. There's no additional cost, it's included with your visit.

---

### How to request one

Simply let your provider know during your visit that you need a note. They'll prepare it before the visit ends.

Your note will be available through your Elation Passport account after your visit is completed, along with your visit summary and care instructions. See \[[Accessing your visit notes](https://support.mydirect2care.com/help/accessing-your-visit-notes?hsLang=en)\] if you haven't set up your Elation Passport account yet.

### Notes for a child's visit

If you need a note for a child's school or doctor's appointment, request it the same way, let the provider know during the visit. Make sure the child is added to your account as a household member beforehand. See \[[Managing household members](https://support.mydirect2care.com/help/managing-household-members?hsLang=en)\] for help with that.
