Confirm the currency, validity period, payment recipient, deposit requirements and refund terms. Ask which parts are estimates and which, if any, are fixed prices. Do not assume an insurance policy covers planned treatment abroad.
Costs are individual, and savings are not guaranteed. A meaningful estimate requires a confirmed provider and scope of care.
