What to do next

  1. 1

    Read the exact EOB denial or adjustment message.

  2. 2

    Compare the EOB with the dental office statement.

  3. 3

    Ask the office whether documentation or a corrected claim can resolve the issue.

  4. 4

    Ask the insurer what appeal or reconsideration options are available.

  5. 5

    Do not assume the full submitted charge is automatically your responsibility.

Important: denied does not always mean you automatically owe the submitted charge

Your responsibility can depend on network status, the provider contract, the reason for denial, plan exclusions, and whether the claim can be corrected or appealed. Reconcile the EOB and provider statement before paying a disputed balance.
