DISCLAIMERS
* Average Prices based on the 80th percentile of the National Dental Advisory Service Comprehensive Fee Report for 2017
General Information
 
This schedule applies to services provided by a participating Careington General Dentist. The purpose of this schedule is to establish the maximum fee that a General Dentist will charge for each procedure. Member is responsible for all charges at the time of service. Fee schedules are subject to change without prior notification to members.
Dental procedure codes not listed on this schedule will be discounted at 20% off the General Dentist’s normal fee at the time of service.
Participating Specialists (Board Certified or Advanced Degree) do not charge according to a fee schedule. Participating Specialists will give a 20% discount off of their normal fees.
Discount plans are not insurance.
Fee schedules are determined by the zip code of the participating provider.
 
Lab Fees
 
Any procedure involving lab and OSHA fees will incur additional costs. All applicable lab and OSHA fees are the full responsibility of the member and are subject to no discount.
 
Providers
 
While all participating Careington providers are professionally licensed in the state in which they practice, Careington does not guarantee the quality of service of the providers. Any quality of care concerns involving any participating Careington provider should be directed in writing to: Careington Corporation, Attn. Provider Relations, PO Box 2568, Frisco, Texas 75034. Please call 800-290-0523 if you have any further questions.
It is the Member’s responsibility to verify that the dentist is a participating Provider before seeking any treatment. Any dental procedures performed by a non-participating dentist are not discounted and are charged at the dentist’s normal fees.
Careington cannot guarantee the continued participation of any dentist. If the dentist leaves the plan, you will need to select another participating Careington provider. Not all types of dentists may be available in your area.
 
Exclusions and Limitations
 
If the General Dentist’s normal fee for any dental procedure is less than the fee listed on this schedule, the dentist will charge 20% off of their normal fee for that dental procedure.
Careington or its vendors may periodically adjust this fee schedule with 30 days notice to Client.
The dollar amount specified adjacent to each procedure may not be the only cost incurred for a given treatment – many treatments may require more than one dental procedure. Please consult your Careington provider for a detailed treatment plan prior to beginning any work.
