Edwardsville Dentist Makes Understanding Dental Coverage Simple with In-Office Assistance

January 20, 2016 - Edwardsville, IL – To ensure all patients have access to necessary preventive care, Dr. Beau Moody is pleased to announce that his practice, Edwardsville Family Dentist accepts assignment in benefits for a number of major insurance carriers.

According to the Edwardsville dentist, "Too often, individuals neglect their oral health because of insurance restrictions that require greater financial contribution from the patients. As a result, many put themselves at risk of developing extensive dental problems which can require more expensive treatment in the future."

By accepting assignment in benefits, Dr. Moody's Edwardsville patients don't need to worry about direct payments to the dental office. Rather, their insurance pays Dr. Moody, eliminating the need for filing reimbursement paperwork that can take weeks for processing.

"Our hope is that by taking assignment in benefits for a number of insurance companies, our team will be able to help alleviate some of the stress associated with navigating dental insurance," said Dr. Moody.

For patients without dental insurance, Edwardsville Family Dentist has also created an in-office benefit plan. With this system, new patients can receive a comprehensive exam, including cleaning, x-rays, and evaluation for only $55. In the event patients experience a dental emergency such as toothache, accidental trauma, or tooth loss, Edwardsville Family Dentist offers $1 emergency exams, which include x-rays and evaluation by Dr. Moody.

The team at Edwardsville Family Dentist is proud to offer comprehensive dental care tailored to meet the health and financial needs of each patient. For more information about available services and to learn more about dental insurance, please visit edwardsvilleildentist.com
