Insurance Information


Understanding Insurance and your scheduled periodontal surgery:

 

Our staff is well versed in all areas of dental insurance benefits and requirements. We will file your insurance claim to your carrier and follow-up with any information they may need to process your claim. Even though our staff can submit your claim, you may wish to submit the claim yourself. 

Following your initial exam our office will obtain a verbal estimate from your insurance carrier noting their contribution towards your prescribed surgery.

 

If you prefer we can mail a Pre-Treatment estimate to your carrier. This process takes about 60 days.

Verbal estimates and written Pre-Treatment estimates are not a guarantee of payment by your insurance company.

 

On the day of your surgery you will be responsible to remit the amount in excess of the insurance estimates.

 

Following your surgery our office will file the claim with your carrier. Upon receipt of the EOB (explanation of benefits) from your insurance company a statement will be mailed to you with any balance owed on your account.

 

Patients that wish to file the claim themselves are eligible to receive a 5% discount if they remit the full amount of their treatment by CASH or CHECK.
