Insurance Friendly

We are an insurance friendly office and are in-network with several insurance plans. We will verify your insurance before your first visit so we know how we can help best maximize your benefits.  We may ask you to confirm this information at subsequent visits so we can remain up-to-date and fully informed to serve you.

In developing a comprehensive treatment plan, all procedures recommended by Dr. Ransom and her staff might not be approved by your insurance company. This does not mean the treatment is not necessary to improve your overall dental health.

As a courtesy to you, we file all insurance claims.

Please remember, your insurance policy is a contract between your employer, your insurance company and you, and that you are responsible for the payment of all professional fees, regardless of the extent of insurance coverage.

We make every effort to accurately estimate your benefits and out-of-pocket expense prior to your treatment, because we want you to be able to plan accordingly. However, most insurance companies do not give an exact quote until a claim has actually been received and processed. Because of this, the coverage quotes we have from insurance companies are “estimates” only and not a guarantee of payment.

On the day services are rendered, you will be asked to pay the portion that we estimate your insurance will not cover, based on what we know about your plan. We then file the claim and the insurance portion will be paid directly to our office after it has been processed. Any amount not covered by your insurance will be your responsibility.

Please note that any balance remaining on your account after 60 days will incur a 1.5% finance charge. Any account balances that reach 90 days past due will be turned over to collections.
