If you have dental insurance for your child, we will help you determine the coverage that is available. In order to best assist you, it is important that you submit your child's dental and/or medical insurance information to us with your New Patient Paperwork a minimum of two business days prior to your child's scheduled appointment. This allows us time to contact the insurance and obtain a breakdown of the benefits that you or your employer purchased from the insurance company.
Should your child be diagnosed with treatment services, we will be able to provide you with a detailed plan which will give you an estimate of how much the insurance company may pay for each procedure, as well as the portion you will be expected to pay at the time of service.
Professional care is provided to you, our patient family, and not to an insurance company. The insurance company is responsible only to the patient as a benefit of the individual or employer plan purchase, and the patient is responsible to the dentist. Our office will assist you every way in filing the dental claim and handling insurance questions on your behalf.
It is important to understand that dental insurance is a contract between you, and/or your employer and your insurance company. We are not a party to that contract. Our recommendations for treatment are based on what will be best for your child and not what your insurance may or may not pay. If you have any concerns about your coverage, please contact your employer or your insurance company.
Our practice accepts patients with Delta Dental, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Harvard insurance plans as in-network providers. All other treatment plans for patients that hold insurance plans including (but limited to) Aetna, Altus, Ameritas, Assurant, Cigna, Guardian, Principal will be treated as out-of-network providers.
