Financial Policy

Patient Billing

CASH OR CHECK

For patients who have no insurance, we ask that you pay for your dental services at the end of each appointment. This entitles you to a 3% cash discount. If you are a senior citizen (65 years+) please ask about our special courtesy just for you.

VISA OR MASTER CARD

We are happy to accept these credit cards for payment at the end of each appointment. However, none of our discounts apply when using credit cards. There will be 3% processing fee added to all monthly payments on a credit card along with a $10 administration fee.

DENTAL INSURANCE

We honor most dental insurance plans and will assist in processing all claims that are assigned. At the end of each visit, please pay your portion for any treatment rendered. We do provide estimates for services, but they are only estimates. The final balance and settling of your account won’t be known until your insurance claim is paid. Note: You, not your insurance company, are financially responsible for the entire dental bill, including any balance due after your insurance company has paid its portion.

                                                                                              WE WOULD ALSO LIKE YOU TO KNOW
For all procedures requiring laboratory work, payment must be made at the end of each appointment to cover laboratory expenses.

Our office requires a minimum of 48 business hours (preferably more, if possible) if you cannot make your appointment. Please note that we are closed on Fridays and do not count it to our business hours. A $60.00 per hour charge will be assessed for cancellations or missed appointments without proper notification. Although courtesy reminders may be sent, it is your responsibility to manage your own appointment schedule and for any fees incurred due to missed or canceled appointments.

We reserve the right to run random credit reports on accounts.

 
Monthly payment plans are available on large treatment plans. Financial arrangement must be made prior to your
first treatment appointment. Interest will be added to unpaid balance over 30 days at the rate of 1.5% per month with
minimum of $10.00 (18% per year).

If you have questions regarding your account, please contact us at Lynnwood Family Dentistry Phone Number 425-771-0165. Many times, a simple telephone call will clear any misunderstandings.
