Cultural Tip
In Italy the staff usually ask to see the insurance card before confirming coverage. The verb *accettare* is used in the formal/plural form (*accettate*) when addressing a receptionist or a group of employees. If you are speaking to a single person in a very informal setting, you could use *accetti* instead. Also, many private clinics may require a co‑payment even if they accept your insurance, so it’s polite to ask about any extra fees.
