One type of insurance Smilebuilderz accepts is individual and family health insurance plans. These plans are provided through private insurers such as Blue Cross Blue Shield and Aetna. These plans cover preventative treatments such as regular check-ups and cleanings and significant procedures like root canals or crowns if needed. They may also include additional coverage for orthodontic treatment or other specialized services.
Employer-sponsored health insurance plans are another type of coverage accepted by Smilebuilderz. These plans provide coverage for every employee who works at a qualifying business or organization that offers them. Most will provide some preventive care coverage, and some may offer additional coverage for more complex dental procedures like bridges or implants, depending on the chosen plan.
Finally, managed care plans are also accepted by Smilebuilderz to help keep out-of-pocket costs low while still providing comprehensive dental care services to their members. Managed care includes H.M.O.s (Health Maintenance Organizations) requiring referrals from primary care physicians before receiving treatment and P.P.O.s (Preferred Provider Organizations) allowing members to choose any provider they wish without prior authorization from a primary physician. With either type of plan, members typically get discounted rates on their treatments when they choose providers within their network, such as Smilebuilderz providers.
By accepting various types of insurance, Smilebuilderz aims to provide its patients with quality dental work at an affordable price so they can get the treatments they need without worrying about high out-of-pocket costs. Whether you’re covered by an individual/family health plan, employer-sponsored plan, or managed care program, Smilebuilderz has you covered!
