Our Services:
Insurance information: Electronic Claims Submission is now a reality in our office. This new service has been developed jointly by some insurance carriers and your dentist to better serve you upon your visit to our office. In the past, our computer has printed an insurance claim form for you. It has been your responsibility to complete and sign the form and mail it to your insurance company for processing. After a few weeks, you receive a cheque from your insurance company in the mail, along with a statement called the Explanation of Benefits which explains the portion of the claim that is covered by your dental plan. Today, as a participant in Electronic Claims Submission, your experience will be slightly different. Your insurance claim form will be sent automatically to your carrier. In its place, you will receive one of two forms before you leave the office. The first option is an Acknowledgment form which comes directly from the carrier as you wait. This form verifies that your dental claim has been received from them for processing. The second applies to those insurance companies who can actually process your claim instantaneously, and in which case you will receive the Explanation of Benefits form which will verify the exact payment you will receive under your contract. Electronic Claims Submission saves you the effort and cost of mailing the insurance form yourself. As well, your insurer will be able to process your claim faster, which means you will receive your cheque sooner.
