Our Billing Process

1. Insurance Verification

Before your appointment, we verify your insurance benefits to determine your coverage and estimated out-of-pocket costs. This helps avoid surprises and allows you to plan accordingly.

2. Treatment Estimates

We provide detailed treatment estimates before any procedure, outlining costs and your expected insurance coverage. Our team will review this with you and answer any questions.

3. Insurance Claims

We file insurance claims on your behalf and work directly with your insurance company to maximize your benefits. Our billing team handles all the paperwork.

4. Patient Responsibility

Any remaining balance after insurance payment is your responsibility. We'll clearly explain your portion and provide flexible payment options to make it manageable.
