Over the past few months, Moscow residents have remotely ordered and received over 800,000 medical certificates in their electronic medical records (EMR). To receive these certificates, patients must be assigned to a city clinic and have access to the EMR. Once ready, the document will appear in the "Certificates" section of the electronic medical record. If the Unified Medical Information and Analytical System (UMIAS) does not contain information about the relevant tests required to obtain a particular certificate, the patient will first be issued an electronic referral for these tests.
"Previously, obtaining a medical certificate meant an in-person visit to the clinic, time away from work or school, and commuting time. Now, you can order and receive a certificate in just a few clicks, without leaving home. This service not only expedites the process of obtaining the necessary documents for patients, but also frees up doctors' time by relieving them of routine paperwork, and reduces the workload on medical institutions. In just a few months, this new feature has already enabled over 800,000 certificates to be issued remotely," she shared.

You can submit a request for certificates remotely using the EMIAS.INFO mobile app or your electronic medical record on the mos.ru portal. To do this, go to the "Order Certificates" section in either service, select the required document type, and place your order. Once the certificate is ready, patients will receive a push notification (if this option is enabled in their mobile device settings).
The completed document is legally binding: it is created in EMIAS and certified by the physician's electronic signature and the medical organization's seal. No additional seals are required at the clinic. Each digital certificate also has a unique QR code to confirm the document's authenticity—just point your phone camera at it. Patients can download medical certificates to their device in PDF format, then print them or email them to the appropriate organization.
If a paper copy of the certificate is required, please check the "Paper copy required" box when ordering online. Once it appears in your EHR, the paper copy, signed by the doctor, can be picked up at the clinic's information desk the next business day. Personal visits to the medical facility are becoming less popular, but they are still possible.
