Check the report timeline
Ask the provider which reports are available the same day and which will follow later. Confirm whether collection is on site, online or through another official route.
Separate translation from clinical explanation
Written translation can convey the report's wording. The meaning of findings, any diagnosis and recommended follow-up must be explained by a licensed clinician. Ask how that discussion is arranged.
Prepare a document handover
- Keep original reports alongside translations.
- Record which documents are pending and the expected provider contact.
- Ask whether records can be shared with a clinician in your home country.
- Keep provider instructions and receipts available after departure.
If questions arise after travelling home
Contact the healthcare institution about clinical questions or a further consultation. You can inquire about help translating questions and organizing the response, with the follow-up scope confirmed separately.
