The assessment

[ ] What explanation fits the problem I have described?

[ ] What else would you want to check before recommending treatment?

[ ] What other approaches can we discuss, including care without this peptide?

The proposed medicine

[ ] Which ingredient and product would I get, and would it be a pill, a shot or something else?

[ ] What is this product approved to treat? For a medicine made to order, what need does that meet and what rule permits it?

[ ] What evidence matches my problem, and what remains unknown?

[ ] Which pharmacy would make or supply it?

The bill and the review

[ ] Which charges repeat, and what exactly does each quoted fee cover?

[ ] What changes if my health plan does not pay?

[ ] How can I reach the person responsible for follow-up?

[ ] What would lead us to review, change or end the plan?

## Keep the replies together

On your printed copy, leave room for the product name, the pharmacy name, the quote and the next step you agree on.

## After the conversation

Read each reply back using words you would normally use. Flag each answer that depends on a test, a record or a decision about payment. Take those open points to the person handling that part of your care.
