We will inform you of all anticipated costs before treatment is administered. We will be happy to submit prior authorizations to your insurance company upon request. Co-payment is expected at the time treatment is rendered. We accept all major credit cards. You are welcome to apply for financial assistance through CareCredit or Capital One.
Additionally, we will submit all insurance claims for you for your convenience. We will fully attempt to help you receive full insurance benefits; however, you are personally responsible for your account, and we encourage you to contact us if your policy has not paid within 30 days. We are a preferred provider for Delta Premier and Paramount Advantage. We work with most insurance companies. Even if we are not part of your network, you may come here with slightly different benefits. Please contact us for more information.
If your account shows a balance you will receive a statement each month, even if insurance has been submitted for you. All fees incurred with this office for services rendered will be due at time of service unless previous arrangements are made. If for any reason the bill is still outstanding after 60 days, a late charge will added to your balance in the amount of 1 ½% per month which is an annual rate of 18%.
Insurance
We will be happy to complete and file your insurance forms to aid you in collecting full benefits according to your insurance plan. Patients who have dental insurance should be advised that the professional services rendered are charged to the patient and not the insurance company. You are responsible for any portion not paid by your insurance company, including any co-payments, deductibles, fees over your insurance company’s UCR, etc. Even though an insurance claim has been filed, you will receive a statement each month if your account has a balance due. It helps us get your full benefits if you list complete dental insurance information for all insurance plans.
Responsibility
We understand that many families are in a transitional stage. Typically, single-parent, divorced, separated and blended households are now more common. In the majority of these families, it is not certain who is responsible for the child’s dental bills. In the case of separated or divorced families, we will need to have this form signed by the financially responsible party. Otherwise the accompanying parent is responsible.
