The end of the year is fast approaching. And, with the end of the year comes the end of insurance dollars available to you for your dental care. Many people don’t realize that dental plan benefits do not “carry over” into the next year. This means hundreds of dollars of benefits you’ve earned could be wasted.
Each year you pay your dental insurance company to cover dental procedure that we offer here in our practice. From cleanings and checkups to more complex, long-term procedures, those dollars are for your benefit. If you forget or get too busy, time runs out and you miss out and lose those dollars. Worse than that you could miss out and lose good dental health!
Many times, you will be able to save money by completing your treatment before year’s end and avoid paying a new deductible next year. To make sure your benefits don’t go to waste, though, you need to act fast, because you aren’t the only one looking to have work done while your insurance will pay for a large part of it. Every year there’s an end of year rush for appointments at our office-and some folks lose out and end up watching their unused benefits (often as much as $1000 worth of benefits or MORE) go down the drain. I hate to see that happen-which is why I’m reminding you now, In November, while there’s still time to make the most of your hard-earned benefits.
If you have any questions about how much actual coverage remains on your insurance, please call our office so we can check for you.
