If you are in network and the insurance downgrades the code can we collect from the patient?
Today we began treatment on a patient to replace PFM crown with new one. After the old crown and decay was removed (75mins into the appointment) it became clear that the tooth was non restorable and was referred for extraction. What code can we bill for the time spent in the chair?
Why would one be covered under the plan and not another
d0470 diagnostic casts, what code is for the wax up
We are seeing children under 3 for sometimes 3 appts and then charging out a D0150 . Wondering if we can chg a D0120 for a visit and then a D0150
My dentist referred me to another dentist at another company for procedure D3348. After the procedure, I was billed D9310 in addition to D3348. I personally did not need a consultation and only required D3348. Do I have to pay this invoice and if not, on what basis?
I was charged code D4266 by my dentist and my insurance changed it to code D7956 and they covered it. I had to pay out my pocket for code D4266. Should I ask for a refund for the D4266 charge?
Provider extracted tooth and made an essix retainer with a fake tooth to cover gap
