Financial Considerations
Our goal is to provide the best possible dental care for each individual, while also being respectful of the financial needs & concerns of our patients. Clear financial arrangements play an important part in the pursuit of good dental health. The following financial options are offered:
Payment During Treatment: Cash, check or credit card at time of service (we accept all major credit cards). Some treatments require several visits. With advance arrangements, you may pay a portion of the total fee at each visit with payment-in-full on the last visit.
WE ACCEPT MOST INSURANCE PLANS
Dental insurance pays only a portion of the total treatment charge. The portion which the patient pays (patient co-payment) can be handled according to the payment options outlined above. The portion that the insurance company pays (insurance benefit) can be assigned to our office.
Third-Party Financing: This option allows you to make low monthly payments at a low or no percentage rate with convenient payment plans.
- The Dental Fee Plan (DEP): This plan offers our patients quick approval for treatment from $1,000 to $25,000. Call 1-800-337-4171.
- Personal Financial Solutions (PFS) – This plan also offers our patients quick approval for treatment from $2,500 to $25,000. Call 1-888-737-3679.
*We also have applications at our office for your convenience.
Assignment of Benefits:
Our office will accept assignment of benefits under the following conditions:
The following information MUST
be provided at the first visit for verification of insurance benefits:
- Subscriber birthdate, social security number
- Insurance carrier, billing address, phone number and group number
If this information is not available at the first visit, the patient will be asked for payment in full for the day’s charges.
After verification of insurance benefits, we will accept assignment of benefits as a partial payment of the total charge. You will be expected to pay your deductible, if applicable, and any estimated patient co-payment. If after 90 days, your insurance company has not paid their portion, the patient will be responsible for paying the balance in full. |
