Treatment and Financial Consent
Every effort is being made to keep down the cost of dental care. You can help by making your payment at the time of your visit. You
will be given an estimate of the approximate total fee at the beginning of any necessary treatment and definite financial arrangements will be
made with you at that time.
We request that services rendered on your child’s FIRST visit be paid on the day of the visit. Several methods of payment are available
after that visit which we will be happy to discuss with you. They are as follows:
1.
Payment at time of visit is the customary method.
2.
Mastercard, Visa, or Discover
3.
Insurance – We will file insurance claims as a courtesy to you at no charge. You must provide us with a current insurance
card that shows mailing address and telephone number for benefit determination.
4.
CareCredit - CareCredit is a flexible patient payment program, specifically designed for healthcare expenses, that makes
it easier for you to get the treatment or procedures you want and need. CareCredit lets you begin your treatment or
procedure immediately—then pay for it over time with low monthly payments that are easy to fit into your monthly
budget.
We file dental claims electronically within 24 hours of service. If your insurance company will not accept e-claims, we will file the claim
on a standard insurance claim form. It is your responsibility to provide the office with the correct insurance information.
If benefits are to be assigned to our office, we must have a Dental Insurance Authorization & Release of Information form (see below)
on file that is signed by the insured or responsible party. The office policy regarding payments from your insurance company is that we will file
claims only twice for a specific claim with a grace period of 30 days. If payment is not received within 30 days, a statement will be sent to you
requesting payment in full and suggesting you contact your insurance company.
DENTAL INSURANCE AUTHORIZATION & RELEASE OF INFORMATION
I hereby authorize payment of the group insurance benefits directly to the Dental Office of Pediatric Dentistry of Noblesville otherwise
payable to me. I understand that I am responsible for all costs of dental treatment. I grant the right to the dentist to release my dental/medical
histories and other information about my dental treatment to third party payers and/or other health professionals.
I understand that it is my responsibility to provide the Dental Office with my current insurance information to properly file claims.
If my insurance company has not made payment to the Dental Office within 30 days of the treatment date, I agree to pay the balance
due in full at that time. I understand that interest will be charged on any unpaid amounts more than 60 days past due at an annual percentage
rate of 18%.
