首先弄清楚“年度体检”用英语如何说。在口语当中,我们有多种说法,比如the physical; the annual checkup; the yearly exam; the annual exam。我自己比较顺口的说法是annual physical。另外也可以叫做Wellness Check。
其次要找到医生。一般来说保险公司的官网都会提供选项。可以根据自己的需求在官网进行寻找。
最后就是电话预约,可以询问以下问题:
-
Do they take your health plan? (是否接受保险计划)
-
Are they taking new patients? (是否接受新病人)
-
How long does it take to get an appointment? (最近可预约的时间是什么时候)
-
What are their office hours? (营业时间是什么)
-
What are their telehealth offerings? (是否提供远程医疗)
