Hello akhil,

Doctors can send sick leave on line using your carte Vitale, with your agreement. He send only provide the third page that you must provide to your employer.

If your doctor did not use this dematerialized service, he gave you three pages, you must send page 1 and 2 to your caisse primaire d'assurance maladie (CPAM) within 48 hours.

You can find your CPAM address on ameli.fr page "Adresses et contacts".

In case of an accident while working, your doctors provide a medical certificate explaining your injuries, called "Certificat médical initial", that is compulsory to send to your CPAM to get the instruction of your accident du travail started. On his side, your employer must send the "Déclaration d'accident du travail".

I advise you to contact a counsellor if you want to discuss your personal situation as we do not have access to your file on this forum.

I wish you a nice day.
