seems stacked against the average busy person who just pays bills. .

time for dental codes to be shared here on TOTV by dental service provider per plan. . .
there is power in numbers
You should Google your CPT codes listed on your medical and dental EOB's to see if they match up to what treatment you received and your diagnosis code(s). It doesn't take that long.
