Insurance Reimbursement for Dental Procedures Abroad

Today, a very small number of health insurance companies will reimburse you for your dental  procedures performed outside your country.  

Moreover, you have to call your insurance company to find out whether it will reimburse your dental treatments abroad.   You will be responsible for a co-pay depending on the insurance coverage you have.   You may have to pay for your treatments yourself and file for reimbursement once the procedures are done.  All your dental records shall be given to you for reimbursement filing.

Those insurance companies that do pay for dental  procedures overseas typically pay only for the dental care procedure and do not reimburse the travel and lodging expenses.    You may, however, be able to pay for your overseas dental  treatment with your cash, credit cards or through accredited dental financing company.

It is good to maximize your dental insurance for the current year or lose it.  Patient who may be needing a comprehensive treatment procedure and need to use his current and next year insurance coverage may opt to schedule a treatment  at the end of  the current year and beginning of the succeeding year (Dec and Jan).  A better way to have a Smile Make Over using your dental insurance benefits an in an affordable and enjoyable way.

STEP 1 :   Patient may consult the PPO dentists in their state/country, get a "pre-treatment estimate"  from them and to know exactly what your share of the cost will be before you receive treatment.
STEP 2 : Then  if you are planning for a major dental work or  comprehensive procedure based on proposed treatment plan without worrying the cost, you have the choice to have it done overseas.
STEP 3 :  Email us for the inquiries and on-line dental consultation about your dental procedures.  You may send your x-rays, diagnosis for review.  A pre-treatment estimate also shall be sent back to you.
