Most dental insurance plans do not cover 100% of the cost of treatment. Because of this and the extreme delay on receiving payment from the insurance company , you will be asked to pay your deductible and your portion of the charges the day the services are rendered. We will estimate as closely as possible your coverage, but until we actually receive the payment from the insurance company, it is just an estimate. We will assist you in dealing with your insurance company, but the ultimate responsibility lies with you. After sixty days the balance will be due in full from you. Account balances which are over 120 days past de will receive 1.5% a month service charge which will be calculated on the 27th of each month based on the present balance.
