Practice Policies
Insurance & Financial Information
We participate with many of the major dental insurance PPO plans, including Aetna, Cigna, Connection Dental, Delta Dental, DenteMax, MetLife, and GEHA.
Your surgery deposit is due two weeks prior to your reservation with the doctor and his team.
If you are not a patient of record and want to schedule both a consult and surgery at the same time but on different dates a $100 deposit will be required at the time of scheduling. This will be applied to your surgery fees on your day of surgery.
Dental Insurance is different from Medical Insurance. Many patients aren’t familiar with the specifics of their dental insurance benefits. Your dental benefits are based on the agreement your employer negotiated with your insurance carrier. Please review the insurance benefit booklet provided by your employer to better understand the benefits they make available as part of your insurance coverage. The patient payment portion covered for procedures varies depending on the coverage provided by your employer.
An estimate of the amount covered by your insurance company will be provided at the time of your treatment, based on the information they provide to us. The estimate is never a guarantee of benefits or the amount that will be paid. We will file all insurance claims as a courtesy to our patients. This does not however, transfer the responsibility of your financial obligation to the insurance company. If the amount paid by the insurance company is less than or greater than the estimate, then you will be billed the difference or issued a credit on the account in the event of an overpayment. Please let us know if you have questions about our financial policies or financing options prior to your treatment.
We accept the following methods of payment:
- Cash
- Check
- Credit Card
- CareCredit
Come prepared. Payment is due at the time services are rendered.
