Medical Clearance Letter

A Medical Clearance Letter is a document a healthcare professional provides that states a patient has been reviewed and is considered fit for a specific medical intervention, such as heart surgery or other procedures. In the medical field, such letters are often required to ensure patients with health conditions can safely proceed with the desired medical care.

Given their health condition, individuals may need to be medically cleared before engaging in certain activities or treatments that could pose a risk. Examples include undergoing major surgery, starting a new exercise regimen, or participating in physically demanding events.

A Medical Clearance Letter typically includes the patient's name, a statement of their health condition, the healthcare professional's assessment of the patient's ability to undergo the procedure or activity safely, and any recommendations for care or restrictions needed.
