Process 1: medical appointment: for non-emergency cases, you need to make an appointment on time 3-4 days in advance.
If you are a new patient, please prepare your name, date of birth, address, telephone number and medical insurance. If you don't have health insurance, tell the infirmary that you don't have health insurance but will pay for it yourself, and ask about the cost before making an appointment. Ask the infirmary more if necessary.

Make sure everything is done: for example, whether the doctor wants you to come again and give you a new appointment time; Whether to make an appointment for another exam or test; Or transfer to a specialty, and the front desk will give you the phone number of the specialty or make an appointment for you; Or you need to pay extra and so on.
Precautions:
1. American hospitals generally do not provide any medicines. In addition to general drugs such as vitamins, prescription drugs must be prescribed by a doctor. Drugs are basically available in pharmacies such as CVS and Walgreen, or they need to be paid extra, and so on.
The dental expenses in America are extremely expensive. If you don't return to China for several years, it is strongly recommended to have a good dental examination in the hospital before going to the United States. For TA or RA, the medical insurance of many schools usually does not include dental insurance, so if necessary, you need to buy dental insurance separately. Dentist insurance usually has more restrictions than general health insurance, for example, you can only go to a designated dentist and have a high out-of-pocket payment.
The above is for reference only, according to the actual situation, satisfied, please adopt, thank you!
