coast dental refused to honor ins fees; insisted on other services/fees not covered, Internet
i first went to coast dental in deland, fl with expectations of a free office visit, cleaning, & x-rays, per my ins. i have always had excellent teeth. i was very ignorant then, & they scared me into several unnecessary services, not covered by my ins, which cost me $300.00. i had no cavities, nor any other serious oral problems. they even wanted to fill a tooth to PREVENT a cavity!!! which i did deny. i reviewed everything after i got home & was ashamed & horrified to realize that i had been SCAMMED!!!
subsequently, i educated myself. coast dental is the main in-network-provider with my ins. when i contacted the palm coast, fl office, i was informed of REQUIRED services, NOT COVERED BY MY INS. i was not allowed to waive these services, & once again the free services would not be considered!!! when i contacted my ins co, it was suggested i go out of network, which is still extra money out of my pocket & does not allow me use of my benefits. when i contacted the fl ins commissioner's office, i was told there was nothing they could do, AND there was no regulation covering these issues!!!
