Maximizing Your Medical Health Insurance for Dental Care
When you think about using your medical health insurance, it is often in regards to doctor visits. However, many medical insurance plans also cover dental care—often far beyond the limits of a typical supplemental dental policy.
At Bancroft Dental Care, we partner with claimSTAT to process medical claims for qualifying dental procedures. This will allow you to use your medical coverage to reduce, or even eliminate, out-of-pocket costs. Don’t limit yourself to the restrictions of a supplemental dental plan—unlock the full benefits of your medical insurance!
Services Commonly Covered by Medical Insurance:
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I use both my dental & medical insurance?
Yes! You have the right to use all your benefits for necessary care.
Isn’t that “double dipping”?
No. Dental & medical insurance are separate coverages. Dental insurance is considered supplemental to your medical plan, so they can be used separately or in conjunction.
Why was my provider paid more than I expected?
Medical rates are set by the government. We bill the allowed rate.
My EOB says I owe a balance—do I?
Don’t worry! Your treatment coordinator will review your deductible & coinsurance & confirm your actual amount due.
Why does my EOB say “oral surgery” when I didn’t have surgery?
Insurance terminology can sometimes label any procedure in the mouth as “oral surgery”—even a simple cleaning. It doesn’t mean you had a major operation. We submit your clinical notes & adjust the codes so your records reflect the actual care provided.
