One of our most common questions is, 'Does your office accept my dental insurance?' The answer is most of the time, yes!
We are an "in-network" provider for Delta Dental. However, we still accept and file claims to almost all the other insurance companies at the out-of-network level to provide you with the best possible coverage available.
Insurance plans not covered at our office include:
BadgerCare
Medicare/Medicaid
American Dental Plan
Forward Health
GHC
Physicians Plus
In-Network Coverage VS. Out-of-Network Coverage:
We check on your insurance coverage and submit your benefits on your behalf as a courtesy. You are still responsible for understanding and knowing your benefits.
In-Network–A provider has signed a contract agreement with the insurance company to provide their insured patients a “discounted” rate. The primary advantage of using an “in-network” provider is that you receive this negotiated or discounted rate for their services, and your insurance generally picks up a larger portion of the bill than with an out-of-network provider.
Out-of-Network- A provider which has not contracted with your insurance company for reimbursement at a negotiated rate. Some plans, like HMO or DMO plans, do not reimburse out-of-network providers at all, which means that as the patient, you would be responsible for the full amount charged by your doctor. Other plans offer coverage for out-of-network providers, but your patient responsibility may be higher than it would be if you were seeing an in-network provider.
Please keep in mind that there are thousands of different insurance plans all with different stipulations for services.
