Before a first visit
Ask what the appointment includes, how long it is booked for, and the current fee for each planned component.
Patient information
Costs, insurance & CDCP
Know what to ask before treatment begins.
Get clear on the recommended care, written fees, insurance limits, electronic claim submission, and your expected portion before you choose a next step.
Price clarity
The right number depends on the visit and what the exam shows.
Current fees can change and treatment needs are individual, so the site does not publish a number that could be inaccurate for your visit. The office can confirm the fee for a scheduled service and provide a written estimate after diagnosis.
Before treatment
Ask for the procedure codes, fees, number of visits, likely follow-up, and alternatives.
Before insurance
Confirm deductibles, annual maximums, frequency limits, co-insurance, exclusions, and pre-determination requirements.
Insurance
Coverage is a contract between you and your insurer.
The team can help with administrative claim information and electronic submission questions using the insurance details you provide. Your insurer decides eligibility, payment, limitations, and the amount applied to your plan.
- Bring current policy, certificate, and subscriber information
- Ask whether a pre-determination should be submitted
- Review the insurer's response before scheduling larger treatment
- Plan for any deductible, co-payment, or non-covered amount

Cost and coverage questions
Answers that prevent surprises.
Can I receive an estimate before treatment?
After an examination and recommendation, ask for a written estimate showing planned services and fees.
Can the office submit claims electronically?
Ask about electronic claim submission using your current insurance information. Coverage and payment decisions remain subject to your plan.
Does insurance cover cosmetic treatment?
