As a condition of your treatment by this office, financial arrangements must be made in advance. The practice
depends upon reimbursement from the patients for the costs incurred in their care and financial responsibility on
the part of each patient must be determined before treatment. This dental office cannot render services on the
assumption that our charges will be paid by an insurance company.
A service charge of 1.5% per month (18% annum) on any unpaid balance will be charged to the patient on all accounts
exceeding 30 days past due, unless written financial arrangements are satisfied.
MCDental Care, PLLC can only estimate insurance payments and laboratory costs. All dental services not paid by
insurance are charged directly to the patient. Any unpaid balance, as well as attorney fees, court costs, and
collection costs incurred by collection and enforcement of a debt are the responsibility of the patient.
