Transcription:

Welcome to our office! We appreciate the confidence and trust that you have placed in us and look forward to meeting you personally and professionally. Our philosophy of care governs everything we do for you. It consists of the following key elements: We truly care about our patients and want you to feel very comfortable with our entire staff. We recognize that each patient is an individual and our goal is to help you retain your teeth in comfort, function, and esthetics for a lifetime. We work to honor your reserved appointment time. We strive to be thorough in everything we do, taking time to be the best we can be. We are concerned for your overall health, taking it, along with your oral health, very seriously. My dental team and I are very proud of the full line of dental services and products that we offer. At your first visit, we will take the time to get to know you (and you, us) and discuss your dental needs and desires. We will perform a comprehensive dental evaluation, consisting of digital x-rays, dental and health history consultation, pictures, oral cancer and bone screening to make a customized plan for you. This first visit will take approximately 90 minutes. As your dental needs may require, part of your oral cleaning maybe performed during this appointment. Let us know how we can help you quickly feel at home in our office. We look forward to meeting you and serving your dental needs now and in the future.

Financial Information & Agreement Payment for services is expected at the time service is provided. Cash, checks, and credit card payments are welcome. Extended payment programs are available through third-party financing, Care Credit. We do our best to reserve time for your specific procedure. Missed appointments without notice hurts other clients with that same need. Therefore, No Show confirmed appointments or cancellations without 24-hour notice is subject to a $35 fee. There are no dental/health insurance policies that cover fees for missed or noshow appointments. Therefore, the fee will be billed to you personally. If you have dental insurance. Your dental benefits are based upon a plan contract made between your employer and an insurance company. If you have any questions regarding your dental benefits please contact your employer or insurance company directly. Dental benefit plans will never pay for completion of your dental care. Insurance companies cover what they decide is necessary, not necessarily what your dental health needs. Consider insurance a coupon, as it is only meant to assist you. We currently accept most insurance plans. Your patient portion and insurance estimates are provided as a courtesy. Payment by a given company does change; therefore it is impossible to give you a guaranteed quote at the time of service. We estimate your portion based on the most up-to-date computerized information we have, but it is only an estimate. In the event that your insurance carrier pays less than the estimated amount, you are responsible for the unpaid balance. Several insurance companies offer alternative benefits for some services, therefore the fee differences will be charged to the patient. If you would like to know your exact insurance benefit, we will happy to file a pretreatment authorization with your insurance company prior to treatment. This does delay treatment but will give you the exact out of pocket figures you may require. We file your primary insurance as a courtesy. If insurance does not pay within 90 days, Smilerite, reserves the right to request payment in full for service from you and let you collect the insurance funds that are due to you. This is rare but it is important that you recognize that the insurance you have is a legal contract between YOU and the insurance company. Ultimately, you are responsible for all charges incurred in our office. The coverage of Secondary dental insurance changes. As a courtesy we will file secondary insurance claims for patient reimbursement only. Secondary insurance does not guarantee payment and is subject to different coverage rules. Therefore, your patient portion estimate is based on the primary insurance. Secondary coverage does not mean 100% treatment coverage, with no patient payment responsibility. I understand and agree that I am personally responsible for payment of all services rendered to me, my dependents, or others assigned by me to my account and charged directly to me. I authorize payment directly to Smilerite from the group insurance benefits otherwise payable to me. If I suspend or terminate care and treatment, any fees for services rendered will be immediately due and payable. Should the fees for the professional services not be paid in accordance with the provisions herein, reasonable attorney's fees, plus applicable finance charges and disbursements, allowances and costs provided by law shall be included in the amount due. If the account is in default over 180 days it will be turned over for collection, and a collection fee will added. Name (print) Signature Date
