Dental Insurance
Dental insurance coverage has become more complex due to the vast number of dental plans and the range of benefits each plan provides. Some plans may cover certain dental procedures, while others may not, and some plans may pay on a fee schedule that is unrelated to our office’s fees. We will work closely with you to maximize your insurance reimbursement for covered procedures.
We consider ourselves a "patient friendly" practice and will do everything possible to explain your benefits and expedite the processing of your claim. For your convenience, we will file a claim for all major dental plans.
We will file and accept payment from non-participating insurance companies as partial payment. If your insurance company pays on a lower fee schedule than our fee, you will be responsible for the difference in payment after the insurance company has paid the claim.
*Our office will contact your insurance company to determine an ESTIMATE of the amount they will reimburse and your responsibility. You will be responsible for any amount remaining on your account after your insurance pays.
