Insurance, Fees and Services
Our entire staff is pleased that you have insurance benefits to help you and you’re your family with the cost of your dental care. We would like to help you obtain maximum use of these benefits. With this in mind, please read the information on our insurance claims process so that we can work together to ensure this benefit.
Our primary goal is to provide exceptional dental care to our patients. We have found that this is not necessarily the same goal for insurance companies. Dental insurance is a contract between you, your employer, and the insurance company. Since we are not contracted with dental insurance companies, anyone can become a patient in our office. It is best if you contact your dental insurance company either by phone or online. Our staff would be happy to lend assistance and helpful tips in speaking with your insurance company. Our staff will however file and submit all claims directly from our office via e-claims to help expedite insurance payments.
We do request payment upon services rendered. We also offer several methods of payment that are designed to help you and your family get the quality of dental care that you deserve. Please feel free to ask any staff member if there is anything we can do to service you.
We welcome your family and look forward to helping you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile that you deserve.
Fees and Service
As the number of patients covered by dental benefit plans has increased, certain assumptions have become evident and we would like to make the principals of our practice, as well as the type of service and care we provide our patients, very clear.
Our fees are based on the overhead involved in our practice, the treatment plan selected, and the time it takes us to provide you with the necessary dental care. We do not believe it is in either of our best interests for us to compromise our recommended treatment in order to accommodate an insurance program’s maximum benefits that may be considerably less than optimal. However, we are more than happy to discuss a treatment plan’s advantages and disadvantages with you thereby involving you, rather than the insurance company, in the decision-making process.
