Insurance

As a service to our Vancouver area patients, our practice will electronically submit claims to most dental insurance programs for you. Our administrative staff will prepare all the necessary forms for your dental benefits. 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. Our staff will gladly submit a pre-treatment estimate to your insurance company so that you will know what your benefits will be.

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. Most patients find that their insurance company has reimbursed them by the time their credit card bill arrives.  Many insurance companies offer direct-deposit of your reimbursement, which speeds your refund.
