Oral Surgery Financing If you need oral surgery in Austin, you may have some concerns about the cost of your procedure. Will insurance cover it? What will you need to pay out of pocket? At Oral Surgery Specialists of Austin, we’re dedicated to helping everyone access the procedures they need for a healthy smile and face, regardless of financial situation. We work with our patients to answer all of their questions and to figure out a financing plan.InsuranceIf you have medical or dental insurance, then much of the cost of your surgery may be covered by your policy. It depends on whether or not your procedure is deemed “necessary” by the company. However, insurance policies vary widely in what they’ll cover. For instance, many dental insurance policies don’t cover dental implants, although some medical insurance policies do (depending on the cause of tooth loss). If you’re unsure what your policy will cover, we’ll be happy to check with your insurance company for you, since we know that dealing with insurance companies can be a major hassle. Accepted Insurances
Insurance DisclaimerThe insurance providers listed above represent plans we commonly work with, but participation can vary by individual plan, employer group, and location. Listing a provider here is not a guarantee of coverage or in-network status for your specific plan. We recommend contacting our office directly to verify your benefits and coverage details before your appointment. Choosing Your ProcedureIn some cases, you may be able to make choices that reduce the cost of your procedure, if this is important to you. Dr. Flint will go over different treatment options available to you and how that may affect the cost of your procedure. Financing PlansYour surgery may not be covered by insurance; it may be partially covered, but you have some costs as well. In either case, if you don’t have the money to pay for your surgery up front, we’re happy to help you navigate financing. We accept CareCredit, which is designed specifically for healthcare costs and offer monthly payment plans. Other Financing OptionsMany patients are unaware of all of the options they have for financing their surgical procedures. You can often get a personal loan or a medical loan from your bank, which you then pay back slowly over a period of time. There are also medical credit cards available, which you can use only to charge medical expenses (useful for those who are worried about having the temptation of another card around). Another option is to charge all or part of your procedure on your regular credit card, and then pay it back according to the terms of your card; unfortunately, the interest rates can often be high, so this isn’t the best option for many people. If you’re not sure which of these options makes the most sense for your treatment, our front desk team is happy to walk you through them.
