If you have dental insurance, we are here to help you receive your maximum allowable benefits. In order to achieve these goals, we need your assistance and your understanding of our payment policy.
Payment for dental services are due at the time the service is delivered unless otherwise arranged with our office. We accept cash, checks, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, American Express and Care Credit. Care Credit allows you to pay over time with NO INTEREST. They also provide convenient low monthly payment plans and have no annual fee or pre-payment penalties. Our office generously offers a 10% discount on services if paid with cash or check the day of service. If we accept your insurance as payment you are required to provide our office with complete insurance information.
Your insurance is a contract between you, your employer, and the insurance company. We are not party to that contract; however, we will do what is legally allowed to help you obtain your benefits.
Many consumers believe that their insurance pays most or all of their dental expenses. In reality most plans pay only 50-80% of dental fees. How much your insurance reimburses for dental services is controlled by your employer, not our office.
Our fees fall within the acceptable range by most Insurance Companies, however, many insurance companies reimburse their policyholders based on a fee schedule which is not determined by the current standard of care.
While the filing of insurance claims is a courtesy that we extend to our patients, all charges are your responsibility from the date services are rendered.
