Financing and Insurance

 

Affordable Dentist Elk Grove, CA

Your Elk Grove, CA dentist believes that the best dental care should be affordable.  At Profile Dental, our goal is to maximize your insurance benefits and make any remaining balance easily affordable.  In addition to insurance, we accept major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) and financing through CareCredit.

 

Dental fees depend on many factors: the type of procedure, the quality of the materials used and our experience.  If you would like to review these financial arrangements before treatment, please contact us.  One of our team members will be happy to discuss them with you.

 

Patient Financing

We always strive to make patient financing as easy and stress-free as possible.  This starts by collecting accurate insurance information in order to make the best and most accurate co-payment estimates for our patients.  Once we have an accurate estimate we can help our patients decide on the best financing option for them.  If the co-payment is more than the patient is able to manage at the time of service, we have several options.  The primary financing option that we offer here in our office is called Prosper financing.  If you are looking for additional financing options, please feel free to come in to our office to have any other questions answered.

 

The big thing with financial things in the office is we like patients to know what to expect.  There’s nothing like coming in and thinking you’ve got a hundred dollar thing you’re having done and walk out front and the ladies tell you it’s five hundred dollars.  Surprises like that are not good.  That’s at the top of the list of what we don’t want to happen here at our office.

 

Dental Insurance

Dental insurance can reduce your out-of-pocket expenses significantly, depending on the type of procedure.  Most plans, however, do not cover 100% of the costs of dental treatments.  The reimbursement for a dental crown may be smaller than the reimbursement for teeth cleaning, for example.

 

Our staff can help make sense of your insurance plan and answer all your payment questions.  We also handle paperwork and processing.  Our insurance experts will sit down with you, go over your dental plan and try to make the plan work to your advantage (maximize reimbursement and reduce out-of-pocket expenses).

 

CareCredit

Your dentist in Elk Grove, CA accepts financing through CareCredit, a payment program that covers 100% of your dental fees with no down payment, annual fees, interest, upfront cost or pre-payment penalties.  CareCredit is like a healthcare credit card.  Treatment can begin immediately, and payment is made in budget-friendly monthly increments.

​

Procedures that may not be covered by dental insurance are included, and you can choose from a number of plan options under the program.  Other benefits include 0% interest if you pay within 12 months and low minimum monthly payments.
