Dentists Dropping Dental Insurances (VIDEO)

April 7, 2009 By Julie Frey 1 Comment

Dentists are sick and tired of dental insurance companies dictating fees and treatments.

Just over half of the dentists in this survey by dental practice marketing resource The Wealthy Dentist said that they had mostly or completely stopped accepting dental insurances.

“We still work with hundreds of insurance companies by filing the paperwork, etc,” said an Ohio dentist. “But by not being ‘in-network’ on any plan, we get paid for what we do.”

I would love to not be in network for PPO’s.
But in this economy I believe the patients may go down the street to an in network provider, there are lots. Include me as accepting in network PPO’s. I don’t believe these data represent a true screening of dentist accepting PPO’s.
If we all would NOT accept.. I’m in!! Thank you
