At Northwest Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery we realize that the financial aspects of healthcare are often confusing and can sometimes be intimidating. We will do our best to help educate and understand the process as best as possible. However, we need to ensure that we are provided with accurate and current insurance information; we will file the charges with your primary and/or secondary insurance companies. While we are pleased to assist in providing this service to you, it is very difficult for us to keep track of all individual requirements of pans. Each plan varies, and has different stipulations regarding how often services may be rendered, and even more importantly, who may provide those services. Please review our process for insurance coverage so that you have all relevant information at the time of your appointment.
If you have insurance coverage:
Verify whether or not we are a participating provider for your insurance plan. Does your insurance company require a referral from another dentist or physician, or prior authorization in order to meet the requirement for benefits to be paid? If so, please bring a copy of your referral with you to your appointment. Is there a co-pay or deductible with your insurance coverage? Please note payment is due on the date of service. If you call our office, we can provide you with an estimate of your payment due the day of service. As a courtesy, we will file your claim to your insurance company. If payment from your insurance company does not cover all charges, because of unpaid deductibles, annual maximum has been meet, coinsurance, or non-covered services, you will be responsible for any amount remaining on your account.
If you do not have insurance coverage:
Please call our office to obtain an estimate for initial consultation. Payment is due in full on the date of service. We accept all major credit cards and have some financing options available for you.
