Health insurance: what to check before your visit

Which questions to ask?

Ask your insurance company whether the test is covered, what the free portion covers, and whether prior approval is required.

It is also useful to ask the clinic which insurers it works with and which documents are needed.

Coverage differs person to person

Coverage depends on your policy type and individual terms. The same service may be free under one policy and paid under another.

Only the insurance company can give the final answer. The clinic can confirm its partner insurers and required documents.

When booking

Mention your insurance details when booking so your visit is planned correctly. Bring any required documents with you.
