Parties to whom Infomation May Be Disclosed:

Orthodontics is covered at the discretion of your insurance company; some types of treatment might be excluded under your coverage. Usually, benefits start when initial appliances are placed and are paid during the course of the estimated treatment time, not in a single payment. Prior to treatment, a payment arrangement will be made with you which takes into account the amount expected to be received from your insurance company. If your coverage should change or be terminated, any balance in your insurance account would then become your responsibility. Should your employment end, benefits may end on your last workday.

The following could affect your coverage:

• Extractions for orthodontics are sometimes considered as part of your maximum orthodontic benefit.
• You must notify this office immediately if your insurance coverage changes so that appropriate paperwork can be filed and your benefits can continue without interruption.

We are here to help you. Please do not hesitate to call at any time with your insurance questions or concerns

I have read and understand the above information. I certify that my insurance information is true and correct to the best of my knowledge 

I agree to notify you immediately of any change in my insurance coverage

I understand that I am ultimately responsible for the entire treatment fee. I agree to pay Busciglio Smiles any amount not paid by my insurance company
