Across your project

Coordinating Medical Interpreting Services with Document Translation Services

Discharge papers, histories and consent records may need written translation as well as an interpreted discussion. Keep the document request distinct from the clinical appointment and identify the relevant deadline for each.

When medical interpreting services is part of a larger project, identify the documents and live sessions as separate deliverables. Crest can discuss the sequence without treating one service as a substitute for the other.

Helpful answers

Questions clients ask.

What information helps an interpreter prepare?

Describe the type of appointment, language preference and expected duration. Provide terminology or background through an approved channel, sharing only the information needed for the session.

Can we discuss our privacy requirements first?

Yes. Tell us about approved platforms, access restrictions and any confidentiality or healthcare-related agreement your organization requires before a booking is accepted.

Will the interpreter explain the diagnosis or give advice?

The clinician explains the diagnosis and treatment. The interpreter relays the conversation and may ask for clarification when needed; they do not make medical decisions or give independent advice.

How do I reserve an interpreter?

Submit your request through the interpreter reservation page. Include the language or dialect, date, local time and time zone, duration, subject, and your venue or meeting link. Crest does not accept office visits. Interpreter availability and booking terms must be confirmed before the appointment.

Should I choose phone, video or onsite interpreting?

Phone works for a spoken conversation without a camera. Video adds visual context and is needed for remote signed-language communication. Onsite interpreting places the interpreter at your venue, subject to availability and confirmed arrangements.

Can I change or cancel an interpreter booking?

Contact us as soon as plans change. Under the standard policy, cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice are charged for the scheduled time. Your written booking confirmation may include project-specific terms. See our refund and cancellation policy.

Are travel time and expenses included in interpreter pricing?

For onsite work, ask for a written estimate that identifies the scheduled time, minimum charge and any travel costs. Confirm the full amount before booking.

Can I send materials to help the interpreter prepare?

An agenda, participant names, specialist terms and relevant passages can help. Agree on an approved way to share them, especially if they contain confidential information.

Can we ask the interpreter to stay longer?

Tell the coordinator as soon as an extension seems likely. Extra time depends on availability and the agreed charging terms; it should be confirmed before the session runs over.

Does Crest provide the interpreter’s joining instructions?

Once the booking is confirmed, follow the connection or arrival plan supplied for the assignment. Keep the on-the-day contact number available in case arrangements change.
