DENTAL INSURANCE
It is
our pleasure to assist you by completing your dental claim forms. As a
courtesy, in addition to filing the claim, we may initially ask you for your
estimated co-payment. Please understand that this is only an estimate, and it
is based upon the information available to us.
The range of benefits depends solely on what your
employer wishes to purchase. Some plans may cover as little as 30% or as much
as 100% of dental services, with most falling in the 40%-80% range.
Some Dental Insurance plans base
the amount of benefits on a schedule of fees arbitrarily developed by insurance
companies. For this reason, you may receive a lower percentage than the
reimbursement level indicated in your dental plan. For example, if your plan
states that it will pay 80% of the cost of a specific treatment, it means 80%
of the fee arbitrarily determined by the insurance company and not the actual
fee charged by our office. Some insurance companies may try to dictate the
treatment by considering some services to be unreasonable or unnecessary. In
any event, you as a patient will be responsible for all of the charges for the
services provided at our office, which may not be paid for by the insurance
companies.
