CONNECTICUT CARE · VISIT PREPARATION
Arrive with clear questions
Bring a short note. Give yourself room to ask for an explanation.
Keep the note small enough to use
| Before the visit | During the conversation | Before leaving |
|---|---|---|
| Write the concern in your own words. | Ask what could explain it. | Ask what the next step is meant to answer. |
| List current medicines and health changes. | Ask how they affect the options. | Ask who will explain tests or new findings. |
| Set out your cost questions. | Ask for the complete estimate. | Ask about refills, follow-up and stopping fees. |
What to have within reach
- Your main concern, and when you first noticed it.
- Your current medicines, supplements and known allergies.
- Past treatment you want to discuss and any test results you already have.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding questions, if relevant to the conversation.
- The medicine name or offer that led you to seek care.
Questions that open a useful discussion
- What do we need to understand before choosing a treatment?
- What other options fit this concern?
- What evidence supports the exact product being proposed?
- If this is made to order, what need makes the change important?
- What would make us revisit the plan?
Leave with a route back to help
