Financial Information

For your convenience, we accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. We deliver the finest care at the most reasonable cost to our patients, therefore payment is due at the time service is rendered. If you have questions regarding your account, please contact our office. Many times, a simple telephone call will clear any misunderstandings.

PLEASE REMEBER YOU ARE FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL FEES CHARGED BY THIS OFFICE REGARDLESS OF YOUR INSURANCE COVERAGE

Most insurance companies will respond within four to six weeks. Please call our office if your statement does not reflect your insurance payment within that time frame. Any remaining balance after your insurance has paid is your responsibility, regardless of estimate given before your procedure. Your prompt remittance is appreciated.

If you do not have insurance to cover the charges incurred, we expect payment in full when services are rendered. Estimated co-payments are expected when services are rendered. If you have insurance to cover your charges, we will file directly to your insurance company for any charges incurred during your visit.

Please be advised that we estimate your insurance benefits based on the information your insurance company
provides. The actual amount you owe after insurance pays could be more or less than the original estimate.
It is your responsibility to know your insurance benefits and any restrictions your plan may have. We must emphasize that as an oral surgeon, our relationship is with you, not your insurance company.

Returned checks and balances over 90 days are subject to an additional collection fee as follows: $100.00 for balances under $250.00 and 40% of the balance for balances over $250.00.

If your account has previously been sent to an outside collection agency, you are required to pay in full regardless of your insurance benefits. We will file your claim and reimburse the amount that your insurance pays. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to speak to the office staff.
