What is the Difference Between a In-Network and Out of Network Provider?

We know it can be challenging to navigate the ins and outs of dental insurance on your own; however at Precious Smile, our team of experts can help you understand your coverage and maximize your insurance network. Whether you are part of our network or not, Dr. Nguyen accepts all PPO insurances. 

In-Network Coverage

When you choose to see a dentist that is in your network, you’ll receive exceptional care at a reasonable cost. As a in-network provider, Dr. Nguyen has agreed to charge an established fee that is contractually arranged with your dental insurance company. This means that once you’ve satisfied your insurance deductible and paid coinsurance percentage, also known as a copayment, we cannot charge you additional amount for covered services.

We accept and honor most PPO dental insurance plans. The following are just a few dental insurances carriers we’re providers for:

Out of Network Coverage 

Even if our office is outside your insurance network, we can still deliver outstanding dental care with potentially the same cost savings. Our team can help you use whatever benefits you can from your insurance and understand our service fees and what you’re responsible for paying. We will happily work with you and whatever insurance you have to make your treatment with us as affordable as possible. 

Medicaid

Medicaid covers dental services for children as part of a comprehensive set of benefits referred to as the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit. We serve your child’s dental needs by relieving pain and infections, restoring teeth, and maintenance of dental health. With medicaid your child will receive a full comprehensive necessary treatment that include but not limited to cleanings and fillings. 

Texas CHIP

Texas CHIP insurance provides your child with dental services that are necessary to prevent disease and promote oral health, restore oral structure to health and function, and treat emergency conditions. With Texas CHIP, your child will receive a full comprehensive exam, as well as necessary x-rays and cleaning.
