SECTION III: For Completion by the HEALTH CARE PROVIDER
INSTRUCTIONS to the HEALTH CARE PROVIDER: The employee listed above has requested leave
under the FMLA to care for your patient. Answer, fully and completely, all applicable parts below. Several questions
seek a response as to the frequency or duration of a condition, treatment, etc. Your answer should be your best
estimate based upon your medical knowledge, experience, and examination of the patient. Be as specific as you can;
terms such as “lifetime,” “unknown,” or “indeterminate” may not be sufficient to determine FMLA coverage. Limit
your responses to the condition for which the patient needs leave. Page 3 provides space for additional information,
should you need it. Please be sure to sign the form on the last page.
