Accepted Insurance
Elevate Dental proudly works with Dental Network of America members to make quality dental care simple, predictable, and well-explained from the start.
Elevate Dental is an in-network provider for Dental Network of America (DNOA), and we welcome DNOA members from Mountain's Edge and the surrounding Las Vegas valley into our practice every week. Being in-network with DNOA means our fees are already aligned with your plan's negotiated rates, so you avoid the guesswork and inflated out-of-network charges that can come with care outside your network.
Our front-office insurance coordinators work with DNOA policies on a regular basis, and that familiarity matters. Before any treatment begins, we pull your specific plan details, confirm your remaining annual maximum, and check which procedure codes apply to your care. This isn't a generic estimate pulled from a brochure - it's a plan-specific breakdown based on what DNOA has on file for your group policy.
We believe you should know your approximate cost before you sit in the chair, not after. That's why our philosophy is built around transparent, written estimates and zero surprise billing. If a treatment plan involves multiple phases or a balance DNOA won't cover, we walk you through the numbers in plain language so you can decide with confidence.
DNOA plans generally follow a tiered coverage structure common to most dental PPO and managed-care products. While the exact percentages and waiting periods depend on your specific employer group plan, the categories below are generally recognized across most DNOA policies we encounter at our practice.
Because employer groups customize their DNOA plans differently, exact coverage percentages and waiting periods can vary significantly from one policy to the next. Our team cross-references your specific procedure codes against your plan documents before treatment so there's no ambiguity about what's covered.
A handful of insurance terms drive almost every out-of-pocket number you'll see on an estimate. Knowing what they mean helps you understand your bill before it ever arrives.
This is the total dollar amount DNOA will pay toward your care within a benefit year. Once it's reached, remaining costs become your responsibility until the cycle resets.
Most DNOA plans require you to pay a small deductible before benefits kick in for basic or major services. Preventive care is frequently exempt from this requirement.
As an in-network DNOA provider, our fees are pre-negotiated, which typically lowers your coinsurance share compared to visiting an out-of-network office.
Most policies allow two cleanings and exams per benefit year at little or no cost, though some employer groups extend this frequency further.
After your deductible is met, DNOA pays a set percentage of the remaining fee based on service category, and you're responsible for the balance.
For larger treatment plans, we can submit a pre-treatment estimate directly to DNOA so you know your projected coverage before committing to care.
Our billing specialists manage the entire claims relationship with DNOA directly, so you're never stuck mailing forms or waiting on hold with an insurance call center.
Before your visit, we contact DNOA to confirm your eligibility, remaining annual maximum, and deductible status at no charge to you.
Our dentists complete a full clinical evaluation and build a treatment plan with exact procedure codes DNOA uses to determine benefits.
You receive a written estimate showing what DNOA is expected to cover and what portion will be your responsibility, before treatment starts.
After treatment, we file your claim electronically with DNOA the same day, which speeds up processing compared to paper submissions.
If DNOA requests additional records or there's a discrepancy in payment, our team follows up until the claim is fully resolved.
Insurance paperwork is rarely anyone's favorite part of a dental visit. Our advocacy on behalf of DNOA members is built to remove that friction entirely, from the first phone call to the final statement.
We track your remaining DNOA maximum throughout the year and help you time treatment to use available benefits before they reset.
You never fill out a claim form or mail documentation. We handle every submission and follow-up directly with DNOA on your behalf.
Larger treatment plans come with a written estimate so you know your likely cost before agreeing to proceed with care.
If a procedure isn't fully covered, we offer payment arrangements so the uncovered portion doesn't delay the care you need.
Most DNOA group plans operate on a calendar-year cycle, meaning unused annual maximum dollars don't roll over into the following year. If you've only used a small portion of your benefit by autumn, scheduling remaining cleanings, fillings, or a crown before December 31 can mean the difference between DNOA paying its share or that benefit simply expiring unused.
For patients facing more extensive treatment, we sometimes recommend phase-splitting a plan across two calendar years. This approach uses the current year's remaining maximum for the first phase and opens a fresh benefit allowance in January for the second phase, which can meaningfully reduce your total out-of-pocket cost on larger cases like multiple crowns or periodontal therapy.
If you carry a Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account alongside your DNOA coverage, those pre-tax dollars can bridge deductibles, coinsurance balances, or treatment not fully covered by your plan. Our billing team can provide itemized receipts formatted for HSA or FSA reimbursement so you capture every available tax advantage.
A little planning goes a long way toward stretching your dental benefits further each year. Here are habits we recommend to our patients with DNOA coverage.
Plan documents can be dense and inconsistent between employer groups. If you ever have a question about a specific clause or benefit limitation in your DNOA policy, our front office is always glad to review it with you line by line.
"We never want a patient surprised by a bill. Every DNOA estimate we provide is built from your actual plan details, not a generic average, and we stand by that number before any drill touches a tooth."
