Interpreter Notes
Interpreters should be aware that 'costos de transferencia' may be used in various financial contexts, not just medical. It is essential to maintain a formal register and avoid colloquial terms. Common variants include 'tarifas de transferencia', which may be heard in some regions but should be avoided in formal medical settings.

Common Interpreter Mistakes
Confusing 'transfer fees' with 'tarifas de servicio'; misinterpreting the term as related to transportation costs; using informal language instead of formal medical terminology.
