FINANCIAL POLICY 

As a condition of your treatment by this office, financial arrangements must be made in advance. The practice depends upon reimbursement from our patients for the costs incurred in their care to remain viable. Therefore, financial responsibility on the part of each patient must be determined before treatment.

Patients who carry dental insurance understand that all dental services furnished are charged directly to the patient and that he or she is personally responsible for payment of all dental services. This office wil help prepare the insurance forms of our patients or assist in making collections from insurance companies and will credit any such collections received to the patient's account. However, this dental office cannot render services on the assumption that our charges will be paid in full by an insurance company.

A monthly service charge at a fixed rate of 1.5% per month* of the unpaid balance as of the last day of each month will be assessed and added to the balance on all accounts exceeding ninety (90) days from the date of service unless previously written financial arrangements are made. I understand that the fee estimate listed for this dental care can only be extended for a period of six (6) months from the date of the patient examination.

In consideration for the professional services rendered to be rendered to me, (or at my request, to my minor child or ward) by the dentist, I agree to pay the fees charged for the dental services provided by the dentist or licensed employee at the time the services are rendered, or within five ( 5 ) days of billing if credit is extended by the dentist. The specifically agrees to pay all reasonable attorney's fees and court costs in the event legal action is taken to collect on the account. The undersigned agrees to be assessed a fee of up to 40% of the total balance on the account if a collection agency is employed.
