I agree to be financially responsible for all services rendered by the treating dentist. A payment on account or an insurance co-payment may be due at the time services are rendered. I will be financially responsible for all charges not covered by my insurance company. I agree to pay all financial obligations in a timely fashion. I accept that all delinquent accounts will bear interest at the rate of 18% per annum (1.5% per month), but that special financial arrangements can be made in certain circumstances.
I understand that a percentage of my surgery may be covered under my dental or medical insurance plan. I understand that all efforts will be made to determine benefits and co-payment information prior to my treatment. I understand that I will be responsible for all co-payments, deductibles, and non-covered procedures on or before the day of surgery. In the event that the insurance company denies a claim after a procedure has been completed, I understand that I am responsible for the balance on the account.
We are happy to assist you in filing the necessary forms to help you receive the full benefit of your dental coverage. Insurance policies vary greatly; therefore please understand that we can only estimate your insurance coverage in good faith. The insurance relationship constitutes an agreement between the carrier, employer and the patient. As such, we can make no guarantee of the estimated coverage or insurance payment. Please know that we will do everything within reason to see that you receive the full benefits of your policy.
Assignment of Insurance Benefits: I hereby authorize and request my insurance company to pay directly to the Doctor the amount due on my claim for services rendered to me or my dependent. I further agree that should the amount be insufficient to cover the entire medical and surgical expense. I will be responsible for payment of the difference, and if the nature of the disability be such that it is not covered by the policy, I will be responsible to Folsom Oral Surgery And Implant Center for payment of the entire bill.
