PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT AND YOU

PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT AND YOU

added on: August 23, 2020
PPE

You may have heard that some dental offices are charging up to $25 for PPE (personal protective equipment), calling it a “Covid Surcharge.”

We have partnered with most insurance companies to pay for the additional costs associated with providing the extra layers and barriers of protection.

Our priority is always to keep you, your family and our team members safe.

At Capitol Dental Care- we are not passing that cost on to you.

You may see a line item on your statements indicating the PPE fee that is entered per our new record-keeping requirements.   If you do not have dental insurance or your Dental Insurance company is not participating in sharing the costs and benefits, your account will be adjusted.

The following insurance companies are covering or contributing to PPE surcharges:

  • Principal
  • Delta
  • United Concordia (UCCI)
  • Humana
  • Cigna
  • Guardian
  • UPMC

For more information, please contact your insurance company.

Stay Healthy!  Stay Safe!

See you Soon!
