Introduction Letter For Application
Please read all of these documents and either mail in or fax these back. It is critical for all required documents be provided before your application can be considered.
Important to know: We ask that you participate financially in your dental health care. You must determine how much you can participate financially and provide that amount to The Giving Neighbors. The amount you provide will go towards your invoice if you are accepted to the dental program. The dollar amount you choose to pay should be the most you can provide and should be provided prior to making your first appointment. This amount will be asked for during the phone interview when we complete the review of your application.
Remember, if you are accepted, all funds available to you from The Giving Neighbors are a gift. Treat it as such.
When you submit your application you are agreeing to the following conditions:
The dentist may not be able to provide treatment, if that happens the dentist’s recommendation must come back through The Giving Neighbors to determine if further evaluation or treatment can be considered.
If you cancel the appointment you will not be able to be considered for future participation in the program.
If you are late to your appointment you will move to the end of the line and may not be able to be seen at all. Rescheduling of the appointment may not be possible.
Please do not bring children with you to your appointment and a limit of one other adult can come with you.
If you have any questions please call.
Regards,
C. Gibson
