How Financing and Insurance Actually Work at Weimar Family & Implant Dentistry

Cost is one of the biggest reasons people put off dental treatment they actually need. Understanding what’s covered, what isn’t, and what options exist to bridge the gap can make that decision a lot less stressful.

What Insurance Plans Are Accepted

Weimar Family & Implant Dentistry is a contracted provider with Delta Dental and Health Partners, and works as an independent provider for most other dental insurance plans. Coverage and benefits vary significantly by plan, so the team helps patients understand their specific policy and maximize whatever reimbursement is available.

What You’re Responsible For

Patients are responsible for all office fees regardless of what insurance covers. Co-pays and deductibles are due on the day of service unless other arrangements have been made in advance. Knowing this upfront avoids any surprises at checkout.

Spreading Out Larger Treatment Plans

Bigger procedures like crowns, bridges, dentures, or root canals don’t have to happen all at once financially. The practice can schedule major work in phases that fit a patient’s budget and timeline, rather than requiring payment in full before treatment begins.

Financing Options Beyond Insurance

For patients without insurance, or whose coverage doesn’t stretch far enough, several paths exist:

• In-house payment plans structured around what the practice and patient agree works.
• CareCredit, a healthcare credit card offering interest-free promotional financing for 3, 6, or 12 months, plus low-interest plans over 24, 36, or 48 months. Some plans bring monthly payments as low as 3% of the balance.
• The Advanced Care Program, another financing route available through the office.

Accepted Payment Methods

The office accepts cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover for day-of payments, in addition to the financing options above.

Getting a Clear Picture Before You Commit

The best way to understand your actual out-of-pocket cost is to bring your insurance information to a consultation, whether you’re exploring dental implants, same day teeth, or general treatment. Schedule an appointment and the team can walk through your specific coverage and financing options before any work begins.
