At Squamish Dental Group, we are committed to providing high-quality dental care and ensuring our patients understand their rights regarding service fees and potential refunds. Understanding eligibility for refunds is essential for effective management of your dental services and billing inquiries. Refund situations specific to our practice primarily involve service delivery issues and account management circumstances.

The following scenarios could apply for a refund consideration at Squamish Dental Group:

• Service Cancellation or Rescheduling: If an appointment is canceled or rescheduled within the required notice period and fees were paid in advance, you may qualify for a refund based on the specific circumstances of your case.
• Service Not Rendered: In instances where a patient was scheduled for a treatment that did not occur for unforeseen reasons, there may be eligibility for a refund.
• Overpayment Situations: If there is an overpayment for services rendered, patients may be eligible for a refund relating to incorrect billing amounts based on the services provided.
• Insurance Billing Issues: In cases where insurance has covered more than anticipated and a payment was made directly by the patient, a refund may be available after the insurance processes the claim.
• Quality of Care Concerns: If there are concerns regarding the quality of dental care received, patients should discuss this with our team to explore potential options for refunds.

We encourage patients to reach out directly to our billing department for personalized assistance regarding their accounts and potential refund eligibility, ensuring that all inquiries are addressed professionally and efficiently.

At Squamish Dental Group, our patients occasionally face unique circumstances that can lead to the need for a refund. Here are some real user scenarios illustrating how refunds were successfully handled:

• A canceled appointment: After scheduling a cosmetic procedure, a patient had to unexpectedly cancel due to a family emergency. Squamish Dental Group accommodated the request and issued a full refund of the deposit made for the service, ensuring the patient felt supported during a challenging time.
• Overpayment for services: A patient noticed that they were mistakenly charged for an additional treatment that was not completed during their last visit. Upon contacting the billing department, the patient received a prompt and courteous resolution, resulting in a swift refund for the overcharged amount.
• Insurance adjustments: Following a routine cleaning, a patient’s insurance provider assessed their claim and determined that a portion of the payment was to be refunded due to a policy change. Squamish Dental Group efficiently processed the adjustment and sent a refund for the difference, keeping the patient informed throughout the process.
• Misunderstanding of treatment plan: A patient who had scheduled an orthodontic evaluation realized after the appointment that the treatment plan discussed was not what they had expected. After discussing their concerns with the office staff, a partial refund for the consultation fee was issued, demonstrating the practice's commitment to patient satisfaction.
