FAQs
What does it cost?
You set the fee levels with our help. It is essential that fee levels are correct from the very start of the plan and our vast experience will ensure that you set the fees on a realistic value.
We feel that our administration charges are extremely competitive. Our admin charges decrease with every 1,000 patients registered onto your plan.
Registration
We will assist you in advising your patients and will administer all patient applications. Generally we arrange that patient application forms are sent directly to us via email, or using a weblink supplied for your practice relieving the practice of a huge administrative burden.
In our experience patients respond very positively to the plan and the reassurance it provides in relation to on-going care and commitment by the dentist.
When can I join?
Your practice does not need to pass any ‘tests’ to join the Smilecare plan. We do not impose any qualification criteria or minimum standards on the dentist.
It is our belief that the best people to run a dental practice are those who have studied and practice dentistry and that there is a general requirement for less red tape, not more.
We take care of the admin!
Smilecare provides all the administration and collects all the fees by direct debit from your patients. The fees are forwarded to the practice by bank transfer within 21 days of collection.
Transfer of existing patients
If you already have a scheme (or schemes) in place you can quickly and easily transfer them to the Smilecare plan.
Other Treatment
Patients requiring additional treatment, over and above regular examinations and scaling and polishing, pay on a fee per item basis. Most practices offer a discount for other treatment as a benefit of plan membership.
In fact most of our practices now offer a discount on examination and hygienist fees for plan members, enabling the patient to perceive a saving from the moment of joining the scheme.
Insurance
Worldwide accident and emergency insurance is available and is provided by The Dental Insurance Partnership.
We do not insist that insurance is included in your plans.
