Patient Financial Responsibilities
Although we file claims for you as a courtesy, your dental insurance policy is a contract between you, your employer and your insurance company. We, the dental office, are not a part to that contract.
Your treatment plan is individually tailored and is not based on your dental insurance benefits or lack of Benefits. Some dental services may not be covered in an insurance policy. Some insurance companies arbitrarily select certain services they will not cover. It is your responsibility to thoroughly understand the coverage and exceptions of your particular policy. Coverage issues can only be addressed by your employer or group plan administrator. We cannot act as a mediator with the carrier or your employer.
As such, you are responsible to pay for any deductible amount(s), your co-insurance portion and for any non-covered services. It is important to understand that you are financially responsible for any and all charges of dental treatment and incurred fees, whether or not paid by said insurance and you must pay such charges in full.
All fees are valid for 60 days after the treatment plan is signed. If you have any questions regarding the treatment or financial policy, please feel free to contact: your providing doctor or our Operations Manager.
