At Hakala Family Dentistry, we accept payments from dental insurance, cash, credit cards, and provide financing through CareCredit. We also offer a plan called Illumisure as an option for patients who don’t have dental insurance coverage. We are happy to answer any questions you have about your insurance plan and other options for paying for dental treatment.
Insurance Coverage
Hakala Family Dentistry is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits. We can verify insurance coverage, request pre-determination of coverage, estimate benefits, and file insurance claims on your behalf. We accept payment from your insurance so that you do not have to pay the full amount for treatment at the time of service, but we do expect you to pay your “copay” share at your appointment.
Extended Payment Options
The finance company CareCredit provides zero percent financing plans as well as payment plans at varying interest rates, depending on approval by CareCredit. We prefer to pay a fee to CareCredit so that you can receive a no-interest finance plan, and we do not have to handle monthly billing. We do caution you to repay CareCredit in a timely manner, as the penalties for late payments are steep.
Illumisure
For patients who do not have insurance coverage, we offer Illumisure, which is a membership program that provides cleanings, x-rays, and emergency visits. A monthly payment is deducted from your bank account. Your regular checkups, cleanings, and exams are all covered at no additional charge, and you will receive discounts on any other dental treatment to increase your savings.
