After following these steps, you should have a pretty good idea about the right option for you. Save your research in case you decide to switch to another doctor or hospital later.
Questions To Ask When Choosing a Provider
Contact doctors or hospitals on your list and ask for more information. To get started, here are some questions to ask:
- ¿Cuál es su entrenamiento y educación?
- ¿Cuántos años de experiencia tiene?
- ¿Está certificado por la junta? (Eso requiere capacitación en especialidades).
When researching a potential hospital or facility, consider:
- Is the facility easy to get to when you and a loved one need to visit?
- ¿Se especializa en el tratamiento de su problema de salud? If so, ask about their training and success treating it.
- ¿Cuántos casos como el suyo se ven ahí cada año? ¿Cuáles son los resultados?
- ¿Proporciona los tipos de exámenes a los que necesitará someterse?
