Financing Options
Payment Options
For your convenience, we accept cash, personal checks, money orders and Visa, Mastercard and Discover. Payment is expected at the time services are performed. When more extensive dental care is necessary, financial arrangements can be made with our office including pre-payment with a bookkeeping discount, payment by appointment or a Lending Club interest-free loan option.
Insurance
We participate with the following insurance companies: United Concordia and HMSA. For all other insurance plans, we will gladly prepare and submit all the necessary forms to
maximize your dental insurance benefits for your reimbursement. Please
understand that many policies cover very basic services and in our
practice we employ many specialized additional procedures to ensure a
better result. Some of these may not be covered by some insurance
plans. However, we remind you that your specific policy is an agreement
between you and your insurance company. Please keep in mind that you
are responsible for your total obligation should your insurance benefits
result in less coverage than anticipated. The fees charged for
services rendered to those who are insured are the usual and customary
fees charged to all our patients for similar services. Your policy may
base its allowances on a fixed fee schedule, which may or may not
coincide with our usual fees. You should be aware that different
insurance companies vary greatly in the types of coverage available.
Also, some companies take care of claims promptly while others delay
payment for several months.
