• Your insurer and policy details if you plan to claim costs. Ask whether translated records or additional documents are needed before the appointment.

​

Consultation Language & Medical Records

• State your preferred consultation language when enquiring. Ask about an English-speaking clinician or interpretation for assessment, treatment discussions, consent and follow-up instructions.

• Ask which records can be issued in English and how translation is arranged. Request copies of the treatment plan, procedure notes, imaging and any laboratory or pathology reports relevant to your care.

• The hospital’s patient guide describes online access to radiology images and electronic invoices with fee lists. Ask how you can access or export these using your patient account, including after you leave China.

​

Fees, Payment & Insurance

• Request an itemised estimate for the consultation, imaging and proposed treatment. For implants or restorations, ask about the implant, abutment, crown or denture, laboratory work, temporary restorations and any bone grafting. For surgery, ask about anaesthesia, admission and review charges.

• Check the fees for the Special Needs and International Dental Clinic and ask about deposits, accepted payment methods and use of an overseas-issued bank card. Request separate information about coordination, translation and interpretation charges.

• If using international insurance, ask the hospital and insurer about dental benefits, pre-authorisation, direct billing and the documents needed for reimbursement. Include the planned procedure in the enquiry.

​

Visit Planning & Follow-up

• Ask for the expected sequence of examination, imaging, treatment and reviews before choosing travel dates. For implants, include questions about healing intervals and the timing of the final restoration. For crowns or dentures, ask about laboratory work and fitting appointments.

• For orthodontics or jaw surgery, discuss the schedule of reviews and how care will be coordinated between Wuhan and your home country. Ask the treating team when travel fits into the proposed care plan.

• Before departure, collect the available treatment records, material or implant details and written aftercare instructions. Obtain the clinic’s contact route and agree how remaining results and further appointments will be arranged.
