United Healthcare Orthodontist – Rockwall
Learn More About the Benefits of United Healthcare
Getting orthodontic treatment is something that is often put off. After all, it is an investment – especially for those who have more complex alignment issues that need to be corrected. Choosing an orthodontist who is in-network with your dental insurance plan is the best way to maximize your benefits while lowering your out-of-pocket cost for your treatment. At Rockwall Crossing Orthodontics, we are proud to work directly with United Healthcare to ensure that you are paying the lowest possible cost for your treatment. Read on to learn more about United Healthcare and how your plan works.
United Healthcare Coverage Availability & Fees
When it comes to orthodontic coverage – every plan is different. If you know that you or your child needs braces, it is important to select a policy that offers coverage for orthodontic treatment. This way, you won’t be left laying for everything out of pocket. Some plans even have different stipulations about age. With your Untied Healthcare plan, you might receive partial coverage for the following services.
- Dental X-Rays
- Initial Consultation
- Orthodontic Treatment
- Orthodontic Retention (retainers, etc.)
- Other Needed Treatments
The Benefits of Seeing an In-Network Orthodontist
We are in-network with United Healthcare. This means that your orthodontist has a contract with the insurance company to establish a fair and average fee for covered orthodontic services that they agree to charge. United Healthcare then covers a percentage of that cost. Alternatively, out-of-network orthodontists can charge higher fees for their services, but you will need to pay the difference in price in addition to your out-of-pocket percentage of the insurance company’s pricing. By visiting an in-network orthodontist, you know that you will be responsible for the lowest possible cost.
