Insurance guideline
We will work with you and your insurance company to receive the maximum benefit possible. The more you know about your policy, the easier it is to process your claim. The following are FAQ’s about insurances.
How does orthodontic insurance work?
Different insurance companies provide different benefits. Orthodontic insurance generally pays for a portion of an orthodontic treatment fee. Most orthodontic insurance has a lifetime maximum benefits. This benefit may vary from $500 to more than $2000 depending on the type of your insurance. Some insurance companies also offer a discounted fee but do not actually pay for the treatment.
How will our office assist you with your insurance?
We will prepare an insurance form describing the orthodontic problems, treatments, length of treatment and the financial arrangements. Please bring a signed original insurance form to our office. We will then submit this form to your insurance company for a reimbursement of your orthodontic fee.
Knowing your benefits by contacting your insurance company can help maximize your coverage. Please note that you are ultimately responsible for the treatment fee. And you are responsible for any balance that is not paid by your insurance company.
