As my daughter had her braces we lost our insurance in the middle of the treatment, so I had to pay the rest ?

Question

out of my pocket as a payment monthly for six month until the retainer, I paid six payment in seven months because I dropped month i didn't go I had to reschedule because my daughter has finals

At the doctor office they ask me to pay this month regardless , even though we didn't go or got any services,that will make it seven payments

please, if any orthodontic out there answer my question,Is that regulation of any orthodontic office,they get the payment even if the patient didn't go, please I need an answer asap because I got on fight with the lady that handle the paper work and I didn't pay that month

Answer 1

Yes monthly payments are strictly to make treatment affordable not related to the number of visits, so you will have to pay up, you can be suspended from treatment and be asked to go elsewhere especially if you are abusive with staff and they have every right to turn you away.
