As of January 1, 2025, we are no longer accepting:
We want to inform you that, effective January 1, 2025, we will no longer be accepting Delta Dental, and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) insurance. You are still able to use your insurance benefits at our office, but you will be required to pay the office fee and will be directly reimbursed from your insurance company.
This decision has been made after careful consideration and in response to ongoing challenges with transparency and poor patient care from these insurance providers. Over the years, we have worked tirelessly to provide our patients with the highest quality care at affordable prices. Unfortunately, we have found that the insurance companies have become increasingly difficult to work with, with limited transparency and a growing focus on their own bottom line rather than your well-being. This has led to frustrating delays, coverage denials, and an overall lack of the patient-first approach we believe in.
While we understand that changes like this can be inconvenient, we remain deeply committed to keeping our prices low and maintaining the exceptional level of care you have come to expect from us. We believe in a system where patient care is the priority, and not dictated by insurance companies.
If you have any questions or need assistance navigating this change, please don’t hesitate to contact our office. We are here to help guide you through your options, whether that means helping with out-of-network billing, discussing payment plans, or finding alternative solutions for your care.
Thank you for your understanding and continued trust in us.
*Insurance Disclaimer
Insurance is a contract between you and your insurance company. We are not a party to this contract, in most cases. We participate with several insurance companies, and as a courtesy to our patients; we electronically transmit your claims via our computer modem at the end of each business day. Although we may estimate what your insurance company may pay, it is the insurance company that makes the final determination of your eligibility. Remember that deductibles and insurance maximums apply in most cases. You agree to pay any portion of the charges not covered by insurance. Failure to submit proper insurance information, which this office accepts on the initial visit, will result in your account being self-pay until such information is provided to the staff.
Fees are determined in consideration of the practice's requirement to provide the very best care possible to our patients.
Payment in full is expected at the time of service. For services requiring multiple appointments, we require half of the payment at the first appointment, and the remaining balance due at the final appointment. In an effort to keep expenses down, we do not mail statements to patients. We require that all co-pays, deductibles, and non-covered expenses be paid at the time of the appointment.
In addition, we are happy to offer patient financing through CareCredit®
Our billing coordinator will be happy to discuss any insurance or billing questions you may have.
