Financial Information
Payment Options
We accept cash, personal checks, Visa and Mastercard. Your insurance
plan co-pay is due at the time of your visit, and you're responsible
for the entire amount not covered by your insurance. For more extensive
procedures, or in cases where patients prefer to pay over time,
we are happy to offer third party financing through Care
Credit, Dental
Fee Plan and Patriot
Financial Services. Please let us know ahead of time if you
desire to apply for this service, and we'll direct you as needed.
Insurance
Our office is willing to work with any insurance company. This
means that we'll be happy to file your insurance for you, and will
accept payment from them as well. However, we do ask that patients
understand up front the limitations of their own coverage, and take
responsibility for their portion of the bill not covered by insurance.
For example, our fees are not negotiable, as they've been determined
based on our time, materials and overhead costs. Unfortunately,
insurance companies vary in their coverage amounts for various dental
procedures.
We also advise our patients be aware of the limited nature of dental
insurance in general. People are typically accustomed to thinking
in terms of medical insurance coverage, where deductibles are high,
but serious and catastrophic conditions are covered. In contrast,
dental insurance universally has low deductibles but does NOT provide
for catastrophic or major problems.
In any case, we're well-versed in the latest coverage trends, and
are more than happy to discuss the particulars of your plan with
you prior to any treatments you may undergo.
