In-Network with BCBS
As an in-network provider, Williamsburg Dental is contracted with BCBS to accept an agreed upon fee for covered services. Once you have satisfied your deductible, you are only responsible for the coinsurance payment.
Dental Insurance Basics
While dental insurance plans may be slightly different from one another, they all generally follow a few basic parameters. The most notable is that dental insurance benefits have a limit, they expire at the end of a calendar year and they do not rollover. In other words, if you don’t use your benefits, you lose them.
Dental insurance is set up this way to encourage subscribers to have preventive dental care. Unlike medicine that tends to treat an existing illness, dentistry strives to prevent dental illness. Think about what happens when your son has a fever and complains of ear pain. You take him to your pediatrician who finds that he has an ear infection. After a few days of antibiotics, he’s felling better and back to his normal activities.
Of course, parents do everything possible to help their children avoid illness, but you can’t always prevent an ear infection. However, with regular dental checkups you and the dentists at Williamsburg Dental can prevent many dental problems. Therefore, using all of your dental insurance benefits from BCBS can go a long way toward keeping your family’s smile happy and healthy.
