Contact both parties
Ask your insurer and the hospital about the exact location and proposed services.
Get requirements in writing
Check referrals, pre-authorisation, translations, invoices and claim documents.
Understand payment responsibility
Direct billing and reimbursement differ. Confirm what you must pay and what limits or exclusions apply.
Recheck when plans change
Retain written confirmation and verify again if the hospital, dates or care change. No insurance acceptance is guaranteed.
