      This orthodontist submitted the wrong claim to my insurance and then refused to remove my child's braces. In order for my child to go to boot camp, he needed his braces removed which were done by another office. I have asked for the price of the removal to be removed from the balance and they would not remove it. It was then sent to collections. The insurance claim should have been for a 12mo plan instead it was submitted by spark for a 24mo plan of care. This led to the insurance company not covering as much money. Once the claim was submitted correctly to the insurance company well after they sent this to collections they refused to remove the charge for the braces removal.

      The Doctor failed to inform us that my child would need to be premedicated to have her braces removed which they require being it is like a dental cleaning procedure. Since she is premedicated for dental cleaning. They didnt tell me this prior to scheduling our appointment even though I asked and I called the cardiologist on my own and the cardiologist confirmed that they never call in medication prior to removal of braces. We get to our appointment to find out they wont remove her braces without the cardiologist clearing her because it says she needs to be premedicated for dental cleanings. Some how its my fault because they assumed I would premedicate her when I wasnt told she needed to be premedicated. Now I wasted an hour and a half there and have to reschedule to have my daughters braces off. The doctor should have mentioned it when we scheduled the appointment to have the braces removed not when we were there at the appointment. I did everything I was suppose to do and never was told that the doctor required my child to be premedicated because of the braces removal procedure. Clearly, reading a patients chart isnt the strongest for this practice.

      Hi *********,We understand your frustration with this experience and appreciate you sharing your feedback. Patient safety is our top priority, and sometimes this requires additional steps. Due to specific medical considerations for your child, pre-medication was necessary for the braces removal procedure. We apologize if this was not clearly communicated prior to the appointment and for any inconvenience this caused. However, we were unable to proceed without proper clearance from your childs cardiologist. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to completing treatment for your child. Our Office Manager will be contacting you by phone to confirm your upcoming appointment and review any additional questions you may have.Sincerely,Spark Orthodontics
