1. What kind of coverage do you currently have through your health insurance provider? (Rationale: To ascertain whether the patient is adequately covered for the services being provided, and what other options may be available.)

2. Are there any preexisting medical conditions I should know about when assessing your treatment plan? (Rationale: To ensure that all relevant medical information is collected and taken into consideration when formulating a plan of care.)

3. Can you tell me more about how this illness has impacted your daily life or routine activities? (Rationale: To gain insight into the patient’s experience and better understand their needs so that an effective treatment plan can be developed).
