On Jan.26 2012 I needed an in-network Humana dentist to sign a Dental Clearance Letter for my up coming Hip Repl. Surg. The letter confirmes that patient has no infection in her mouth, which I knew I did not have.
Dr David Self refused to sign the letter and made it clear he would have to do a deep cleaning first. The key word is DEEP, having never used my dental plan before but knew I could get 2 free cleanings per year I agreed since I was already in the chair.
During my cleaning process the patient coordinator came in to inform me she opened an account with GE FINANCE for a 12 mon. interest free for what ever my Dental plan did not cover.
At no time did anybody explain to me the difference between CLEANING and DEEP CEANING.The end result was I was handed an itemized bill for $1360.00 of which $863.00 was financed with GE.
Charges on the bill were a mistery even to Humana. Since this service I have received another bill for $131.00 without any explanaition. Any request by mail has been ignored and now I received a letter from a collection agency reg. the $131.00
My advise to any seniors, be aware of anybody that showers you with sweet words like Honey don't worry about a thing, we'll take good care !!! COAST DENTAL even if they are an in-network dentist with your healthcare provider!!

My response to COAST DENTAL

On my second call to Humana, I was told they never sent requested documentation and my case was on HOLD.
Humana did make another attemped while I was on hold and they promised to send requested documentation. Mind you we are still talking about PROPOSED TREATMENT PLAN!
I was in the office on January 26 it was finished!!!! The packet I received on the way out
PROPOSED TREATMENT PLAN $1152.00 EST. iNS. $289.00 GE FINANCE $863.00 12mo inter. free WHOOPY!!!
The final bill to Humana was $1307.00 and they paid $362.00 Humana was unable to get explanations to charges on the itemized bill that had nothing to do with a DEEP CLEANING.
Your Corp. Offices know what you signed up for when you joined A Healthcare Provider but your individual offices are doing their own thing. Maybe they are required to produce set amounts per month. THAT IS WHY THEY TURN INTO CROOKS!! i
I have read a lot about COAST DENTAL after the fact. Unbelievable!!
I am working with my Healthcare Provider to have COAST DENTAL removed from their in -network listing. After all Humana members trust their Healthcare Provider to give them honest and trustworthy DR. or Dentists. DR. DAVID SELF is not a good fit!!

Thank you for your comment. Our dentists formulate treatment plans for each patient based on their clinical findings of a complete exam and x-rays, not based on the terms of insurance coverage. Coast Dental's standard fees are routinely below the average price for the services provided. When a patient submits a dental insurance plan, Coast Dental must charge the fees contractually determined by the patient's insurance carrier. Our policy is to research insurance coverage and present a thorough treatment plan to the patient including the estimated costs insurance does not cover. Please contact our Patient Relations team at 1-855-455-6601 so that we may address your concern. Thank you.
