How to use this list

Begin by setting aside your photo ID, health insurance card, and appointment confirmation. Pack your hearing aids, case, and either spare batteries or your charging case. If you use a written note to communicate your preferences, include that. Gather your current medication list with doses, medication allergy list, and any vitamins or supplements you take. Add your immunization record, home blood pressure log if you track it, and any specialist contact information. Prepare a list of new health concerns and questions for the clinician. Don’t forget your preferred pharmacy information, payment card or copay, and your phone.

Don’t bring extra hearing aid accessories you never use at appointments—stick to what you actually need for the visit. Avoid packing duplicate medication lists or outdated information. If you don’t track your blood pressure at home, you can skip that log. Only include records that are current and relevant for this year’s physical.
