“When health care providers commit fraud, it is particularly disturbing, because the integrity of the health insurance claims process depends on the trustworthiness of the licensed professionals involved,” says New Jersey Insurance Fraud Prosecutor Greta Gooden Brown.
We believe most dentists are honest and willing to correct any billing errors. However, some dentists engage in overbilling. They intentionally misrepresent vital information on claim forms. If this sounds like you, be warned: It will cost you!
Delta Dental of New Jersey is committed to stopping fraud. Since 1995, we have recovered more than $5.5 million due to overbilling and avoided making overpayments of millions of dollars. Since we are dedicated to serving the interest of our groups, we refund to our self-funded groups the funds we receive as restitution.
