Special notes on Delta dental plans
We have many Delta Dental patients. However, we are not in network with Delta. Some Delta plans will pay us directly and others will not. For those plans that will not pay us directly, we must collect for the treatment in full and then Delta will mail a check to you for reimbursement. If your plan is not on a list, contact us or Delta to find out how your plan pays. Here is a list of Delta plans that we already know will pay us directly:
Dow, FMOL, Kinder Morgan, Marathon, Noranda Buy up, Primoris, Performance Contractors, Rubicon and Westlake Management
