Most major insurance plans accepted.
For most everyone with traditional insurance we accept and process your insurance. We accept most regular (indemnity) and PPO insurance (out of network), and we are participating providers in United Concordia Tricare PPO, Delta Dental PPO Plus Premier Plan, CareFirst, Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, and Cigna.
A participating provider of a plan has agreed to write-off any amounts between their usual fee schedule and the lesser fee schedule of the insurance company (exceptions exist for particular procedures). Non-participating providers have no obligation to write-off amounts and patients are responsible for any applicable deductible and copay or coinsurance.
If you have insurance questions, please call (not email) Pat or Mariela. We will file your insurance as a courtesy so you don’t have to, and we’ll do our best to collect all charges from your insurance; however, if any difficulty arises with processing insurance claims it is your responsibility, and any balance is still due to us. We work hard to submit claims accurately and thoroughly, and if you have any questions regarding insurance or proposed treatment please don’t hesitate to discuss it before treatment.
