Insurance Information

Our insurance coordinators deal with many different insurance companies. Some companies offer many different dental and medical plans. These companies can change benefits, co-pays, and deductibles many times throughout the year. We do our best to provide you with accurate coverage estimates based on information available to us. At times, it is almost impossible to accurately estimate a patient’s insurance co-payment. Many insurance companies will not give out fees until after the treatment is completed. Dealing with these companies can be difficult and time consuming. As a courtesy, we ask that you keep us informed of any change to your insurance. It is important that all information about you and your insurance is current.

Although we will gladly file a claim on your behalf, you may wish to submit the claim yourself. In general, insurers process claims filed directly by patients faster than those filed by the service providers (dental offices).

Furthermore, most dental insurance policies are limited and often will only pay for a portion of the procedure(s) that may need to be done.

The majority of dental plans reimburse approximately 30-80 percent of treatment costs.

Medical Insurance

Patients coming to us with a problem that they expect to be covered by medical insurance (biopsies, tumors, TMJ, infections) must have a referral from their primary care physician. A referral from a dentist is not adequate for medical insurance coverage. Obtaining a medical referral is the patient’s responsibility. We cannot obtain the referral for you and the referral cannot be obtained retroactively. If you do not have a referral, we will be happy to see you, but your medical insurance company will not pay for your treatment.

Medicare

Dental procedures (root planing, implants) are not covered by Medicare. If Medicare denies your procedure, you are responsible for the charges.

Private & Group Insurance

As a courtesy to our patients with medical and/or dental benefit plans, we will submit necessary claim forms, receipts, and other information to your insurance company.
