After
your appointment, we will estimate* the amount to be covered by your
insurance and you will pay the difference that day. We will then submit your insurance
claims for you and post the payment when it arrives at our office. If there is a
difference between the estimation and the payment, we will contact you.
*Although we do our best to accurately estimate the amount your insurance will
pay, we will not know for certain what the insurance coverage will be until your
claim is processed. If your insurance company pays less than our estimation, we
will contact your insurance to determine the reason and strive to obtain the
maximum benefit for you. However, you, the patient, are responsible for any
amount unpaid by your insurance company and we will send you a statement for any
such charges.
In the
event that your insurance company pays more than our estimation, we will
promptly send you a refund check or credit the overpayment to your next
appointment.
If you
have any questions about this policy, please don't hesitate to call and speak to
one of our friendly reception staff. Our phone number is: 573-364-2868.

Our
general payment policy requires that you pay for services rendered on the day of
treatment. If you have insurance,
we'll deduct their estimated payment from the amount due.
We accept cash, personal checks, Visa,
MasterCard and CareCredit. We also work with a financing company which can help
finance the cost of expensive procedures.
On
major dental work (crowns, bridges, dentures) we typically require that half of
the bill be paid at the first appointment and the remainder paid when the dental
work is placed in the mouth.

INSUFFICIENT FUNDS CHECKS
There
is a $15.00 fee for all insufficient funds checks. Checks not paid within 10
days of notification are sent to the Prosecuting Attorney's office.
PAST DUE ACCOUNTS
Account
balances should be paid upon receipt of the monthly statement. Accounts with
balances over 90 days past due are sent to the Collection Agency.
