- Do you accept my insurance, Medicare or Medicaid?
- How does the sliding fee discount work, and what papers should I bring (for example proof of income)?
- What services do you offer here (for example dental, mental health, vaccines, lab tests)?
- What are your hours, and do you have interpreters or staff who speak my language?
A general checklist, not medical advice. For questions about your health or your medicines, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
