Dental Insurance

Navigating dental insurance can be overwhelming, but at Whittier Premier Dental, we're here to simplify the process and ensure you maximize your benefits while receiving the exceptional care you deserve.

Insurance Plans We Accept

We proudly accept all PPO insurance plans and handle claim filing and processing as a courtesy to both in-network and out-of-network patients. However, we do not currently accept HMO, DHMO, Medi-Cal, Medicare, or Medicaid. For patients without insurance or with limited coverage, we offer flexible dental financing options to make quality care accessible.

Making Sense of Your Dental Insurance

Dental insurance policies can be complex, with lengthy documents outlining coverage details that vary widely based on your plan. Whether you have individual coverage or a policy provided by your employer, understanding the specifics of your benefits is crucial. Our team is here to help decode your insurance plan and ensure you're fully informed about your coverage. We take several steps to make this process seamless:

• Submitting Claims on Your Behalf: We handle the paperwork to ease your stress.
• Communicating with Insurance Providers: We contact your insurer to clarify coverage details and limits.
• Providing Detailed Information: If you prefer to manage claims independently, we equip you with the necessary documentation and guidance.

Preparing for Your Visit

Having a clear understanding of your insurance coverage before your appointment can streamline the treatment planning process. To help you get started, here are some common questions we ask insurance providers on your behalf:

• What treatments are covered under my plan?
• What percentage of the cost is covered for each service?
• What is my annual coverage limit?
• Do I have a deductible? If so, how much?
• Can I opt for alternative procedures within the same treatment category?
• What are the specific details regarding this treatment option?

Important Notes About Insurance Coverage

It's important to understand that insurance carriers often restrict the release of detailed information to third parties, including dental practices, even with signed consent. While we do our best to assist you, we encourage patients to familiarize themselves with their policy limits to avoid surprises. Additionally, regardless of your insurance plan, patients are ultimately responsible for the cost of their treatment. Our team is happy to discuss financing options tailored to your needs, ensuring your dental health remains a priority. If you need financial assistance, let us know when scheduling your next appointment.
