I’m a registered nurse, and my husband works in a nearby city office. I recently contacted this dental office to confirm dental coverage options through my employer-provided insurance, as well as state insurance for one of my children. One of my children was born with a severe congenital condition that required multiple surgeries, a G-tube, feeding pump, and extensive PT/OT/SLT during the first 18 months of life. She has fought hard to overcome significant challenges l, and so have we. During our call, I was told your office is accepting new patients, but not those with state-funded insurance. Because one of my children is covered under a state plan, your staff stated that none of my family members would be accepted as patients. I asked for clarification, explaining that the three of us with employer-provided coverage we're still interested in working with their dental office and reassured that I would continue care elsewhere for our other child. I was told, again, that we would all be refused. When I asked if this was due to a state regulation, I was informed it wasn't, it was just your office's policy. To be clear, that policy effectively denies care to a working, middle-class family solely because one member is on state insurance. It’s discriminatory, ethically concerning, and runs counter to the spirit of accessible healthcare. As a healthcare professional and as a mother, I find this practice deeply troubling. Families like mine, who work hard, contribute to the community, and navigate complex medical realities, deserve better than exclusion based on insurance status. Do better. After all, you never know when a medical tragedy could strike to your family. It can happen in an instant.
